Title:
  simple-scan chooses scanned image size improperly

Status in simple-scan package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I have an HP OfficeJet 4654 which the scanner recognized (after a
  while, but eventually it finds the OfficeJet).  The scanner can do
  single pages on the platen and has a sheet feeder as well.

  When I scan single pages on the platen, the size is correctly set to
  Letter (It could do A4 but I don't use that).

  However, if I use the sheet feeder, the scan defaults to Legal size.

  If I change the Preference to Letter in the gear settings, I can get
  Letter sized scans with the feeder.  However, with the Preference set
  to Letter, the single platen scanned documents come out Legal sized
  with the area below the Letter sized form blackened in.

  This is absurd.  If I tell it to use Letter size, it should not
  override this and produce incorrect Legal sized scans, regardless of
  whether the source is on the platen or from the feeder.

  What I truly don't understand is why I get a Legal size scan on a
  Letter sized piece of paper in the sheet feeder at all (the default
  behavior).  The app is clearly capable of producing letter sized scans
  when told to do so.  I also don't understand why the scanning tool
  overrides my Preference setting for Letter size when I scan from the
  platen.

  The new interface also makes it more difficult to change the
  Preferences - there's no Save or OK button, just the upper-right-
  corner x which usually means don't save - very confusing and user
  unfriendly.

  Description:  Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
  Release:      20.04
  Simple-scan Version: 3.36.3

  What I expected to happen:
  If I scan a letter sized document, I expect a letter sized scan.  If I scan 
multiple sheets all letter sized, I expect all pages to scan at letter sized.

  What happens instead:
  If the paper size Preference is set to Automatic, the platen scans are 
correct but the sheet feeder scans are all legal sized.
  If the paper size Preference is set to Letter, the sheet feeder scans are all 
letter sized but the single page platen scans are all legal sized with a 
blackened 3" section at the bottom of the page.
