Description of problem: Scanning does not work correctly. With Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500 it results in I/O error, with Fujitsu ScanSnap S510 scanning work - but takes a lot of time. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): sane-backends-1.0.21-3.el6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run scanimage (or also scanadf) with A4, duplex, 300 or 600dpi, color 2. 3. Actual results: The scan takes a long time to finish, like more than 2 minutes for one paper, or fails completely with I/O error. Expected results: The scan should finish successfully and take something like 15 seconds. Additional info: There is a bug in the sane-backends-1.0.21 in the fujitsu backend which makes it fail on certain supported devices - not all. The but didn't exist in 1.0.20 and is fixed in current GIT. As a work around the "-B" switch can be used which makes things work.

Hi Nils, currently I don't have access to any of the scanners in question :( May try later if possible. I don't remember exactly but it looks like the correct patch to me.
