Your scanimage needs to be linked to JPEG, TIFF and PNG libraries.  You
can check with

  ldd $(which scanimage)

On my machine I get

  $ ldd $(which scanimage)
        linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fffa9f9a000)
        libsane.so.1 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsane.so.1 
(0x00007f11434ed000)
        libpng16.so.16 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng16.so.16 
(0x00007f11432ba000)
        libjpeg.so.62 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libjpeg.so.62 
(0x00007f114304f000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007f1142cb0000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f1142aac000)
        libz.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so.1 (0x00007f1142892000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6 (0x00007f114258e000)
        /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f1143902000)

So I can scan directly to JPEG and PNG but not to TIFF.

If you're compiling scanimage yourself from source, you need to have the
development packages installed before you ./configure.

Hope this helps,
