Hi Florian,
I had the same problem with my quite old Canonscan 650U.
Last year at the end of October the Sane/plustek group wanted to
implement a newer version later than sane-backends-1.0.23 because this
one is installed by default from the debian/ubuntu/mint repositories.
Why the newer one were not implemented, I made that question, was not
answered.
In short: I tried to recompile the latest backends but I failed and I
gave it up. It was too hard for me to find out how to recompile,
especially if you use different Debian derivates ( f.ex. Mint or
Kubuntu), because of differnt rights policies.
My clumsy solution was to use WinXP on virtual box. Works fine and I
have all the gimmics, but watch out: If you start with virtual box and
how to implement f.ex. usb 2.0 etc. into it, it is another long story.
Cheers,
Winni

Scanning a consecutive page leads to a stuck scanner with the stepper
motor hitting hard on the 0 position obviously. So far it has not been
damaged I think, but time will tell... I tried to fix this with various
changes to the plustek.conf, but only to find out that output without
calibration is unusable. And also I do not manage to get calibration
saved properly.
What could be wrong with this device, it seems to be configured somehow
by the first scan run, and then it gives up completly on the second one.
which SANE version are you using?
If you're using the latest, you might have to tweak the motor settings
of that device in the sources, recompile and reinstall SANE.
Cheers,
Gerhard
