Further investigation of my backups shows that I never had a "jpeg-quality"
setting in GNOME settings on this machine before
("HOME=/path/to/restored/homedir dconf dump /org/gnome/simple-scan/").
I do have jpeg-quality=75 on the old machine that was connected to the scanner
until 5 years ago...
TL;DR: Apparently the compression setting was set to the minimum value.
Changing that fixed the problem.

Investigation log:
1. Pointing LD_LIBRARY_PATH to a restored backup of /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
does not help.
2. "strace -f" shows no external programs are called to handle
I have just discovered a few good PDF image documents scanned with simple-scan
42.00 on January 22. So the regression was not introduced by the upgrade from
20.04LTS to 22.04LTS, but after that.
I will have a deeper look at the changes in /var/log/dpkg.log.* later...

"journalctl -f" does show some messages, but there is not really any

Thank you for your bug report. Could you add a screenshot showing the
issue?
Is there any message printed in the
$ journalctl -f
log when having the issue?
As a workaround you can use png and then use the image viewer to save
back as jpg or print to pdf

I debuild 44.0-0ubuntu1 from lunar, and that has the same issue.
> Version 3.36.3-0ubuntu0.20.04.0 did not have this problem.
That was when still running 20.04LTS.
When installing 3.36.3-0ubuntu0.20.04.0 (and its
