despite my supplying you with all the information you requested.

$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 21.10
Release:        21.10

$ apt-cache policy simple-scan
simple-scan:
  Installed: 40.5-1
  Candidate: 40.5-1
  Version table:
 *** 40.5-1 500

I have attached a debug log generated from the scans, and I will also be
attaching the relevant screenshots, one at a time n the next 6 comments.

What I expected to happen is simply this:

When I set the Preference for page-size to Automatic, I expect the pages
to scan as platen-sized for platen scans and legal sized for feeder
scans.  When I set the Preference for page-size to Letter, I expect to
get all letter sized scans with no excess junk in the image.

Here is what happens:

Start simple-scan.
Set Prefereneces to page size: Automatic (attachment #1)
Scan an image on the platen, then scan a text, also on the platen (attachment 
#2)
- Note that both images are the correct size - letter+minimal extra (A4?)
Scan a text via the feeder, then scan an image through the feeder (attachment 
#3)
- Note that the scans are both the same size - letter+
Set Preferences to page size Letter (attachment #4)
Scan an image page on the platen, then scan an image on the platen (attachment 
#5)
- Note that the image scan is correctly coming out as a letter-sized page, but 
the text has a black box filling in a legal size page under the actual letter 
size paper.
Scan a text page through the feeder, then an image page through the feeder 
(attachment #6)
- Note these are both the correct letter size.

The command line I used to get this log was: $ simple-scan -d &> scan.log
Log attached here.

Please fix this.

I will note that one of the issues I wrote bug 1916550 has been solved,
but offhand I don't remember which.
