Hi, that certainly is strange since I used the N1240U for several
years with SANE and it always worked beautifully. What happens if you
set the various DEBUG environment variables for sane, sane-plustek,
sane-usb and so forth (check man pages for these items), to see where
the problem starts to occur (for example, does the plustek backend
ever get called?
