Same problem in Maverick with a HP LaserJet M2727nf MFP. The last lines of ltrace scanimage 2>&1 | grep sane_ read:
sane_start(0x84ec568, 0x804d7a0, 0, 0xbfc8bb54, 0) = 0 sane_get_parameters(0x84ec568, 0xbfc8bb24, 0, 0xbfc8bb54, 0) = 0 sane_read(0x84ec568, 0x851ad08, 32768, 0xbfc8bb50, 0) = 2 sane_strstatus(2, 0x851ad08, 32768, 0xbfc8bb50, 0) = 0xeceb64 __fprintf_chk(0x2a7580, 1, 0x80500ed, 0xbfc8e89c, 0xeceb64scanimage: sane_read: Operation was cancelled sane_cancel(0x84ec568, 1, 0x80500ed, 0xbfc8e89c, 0xeceb64) = 0 sane_close(0x84ec568, 1, 0, 1, 0x31f918) = 0x2a83c0 sane_exit(0x84ec568, 1, 0, 1, 0x31f918) = 0 When using xsane, scanning works as expected. However, this bug should not be against simple-scan, but against sane- utils.
