Hi Marcus,

this is why scanimage is named "scanimage". It will start a scan after
setting all options.
If you just want to switch off the lamp you can start xscanimage and
press the button "Lamp off".
Or you can download the tool hpscan from http://www.kirchgessner.net and
do a

hpscan /dev/usbscanner connect-device -ltest 0
