Hi Marielle, Please install latest Sane backend as described here: http://www.sane-project.org/docs.html or here: http://www.sane-project.org/README.linux.
Your scanner should scan up to 600 dpi from flatbed out of the box. Sane can support up to 1200 dpi, but the output @ 1200 dpi may be buggy. Please report the result of the 1200 dpi scan here. If needed, I can create a patch. ADF has a paper empty bug. You can download a patch from here: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/sane-devel/2014-April/032272.html. I haven't updated the sources yet, because nobody reported that this patch is working. Please test it and report, if you like.
