Michael,

 From your description it sounds like the scanner is failing to find 
home and is going too far past the home position.
If you get a chance perhaps you could try a small scan with debugging 
turned on and send me the logfile.
Here is an example of how to create a logfile using xsane:
- If your shell is a korn shell, or bash shell type "export 
SANE_DEBUG_LEXMARK=20"
- If your shell is C shell, or tcsh shell type "setenv 
SANE_DEBUG_LEXMARK 20"
- From the same shell type "xsane 2> xsane_log"
- Try doing a scan and quit. Send me the xsane_log file.

If you are using a different frontend replace "xsane" with that 
frontend's name.

regards,
Fred O.
