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.
