Hi Florian, Many thanks for your new scanner report.
I just added your patch to the development repository. You'll see that I set the status to complete. And I renamed the scanner to the name I found in a MS inf file. I suppose that the communication error at the end of a scan is an usb problem. I'm still digging for a patch. But I only have access to an imageClass scanner once a week for about 1-2 hours...
