You have no clue how to use the command line or write code, yet you
are sure this scanner is suitable :)

Many scanners do the calibration automatically, and will choke when
you gut them like this. Fortunately, the Genesys chips require the
software to initialize the calibration, so it should be possible to
bypass that. Unfortunately, the data will look bad. You really need to
do a scan with the assembled scanner, and cache the calibration
values, like genesys backend does for ADF machines. Then you could
re-use that calibration data.

You might have to hack some code to make these things happen.
