Xerox Workcentre 3225 with the drivers version 1.00.25:00.05 that used to work
very well with Zesty's libsane still not functional.
My malfunction hasn't changed a bit with the 1.0.27-1~experimental2ubuntu2.1
package.
Like before xsane crashes with the following message:
Not a JPEG file: starts with 0x00 0x00
and/or hangs with scanning status.

I could use some/any guidance for providing more details to anyone if
reverting back to working libsane is not an option.

Title:
Many 3rd party scanner drivers are broken by a sane change
Status in sane-backends package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Many scanners can no more be used since sane has changed something:
The 3rd-party plug-in the vendor provides as .deb package will still
install. But the scanner is no more recognized.
Scanners that are affected are(besides others):
- Epson Perfection V10
- Epson Perfection V1000
- Epson WorkForce GT-1500
- Brother MFC-8510DN
- Epson Perfection V33
It is to note that the probability that the scanner manufacturers fix
things others broke is below 100%.
