Hi Stef, Thank you for your prompt response. The scanner's light beam was at the wrong end when I ran the scanimage command that you specified above. This is because I don't have a way to bring it back to the starting position. The scanner made a continuous loud noise as before. Nothing got scanned. scanimage quit after a while. The sound continued after that until I pulled the power cord. I've attached the debug.log file. Here is the scan.pnm file that resulted: P6 # SANE data follows 202 150 255 Thanks.
