Besides, in spite the fact the workaround worked for me (able to scan), there are still some issues: a. the scanner is very slow to detect (at least one minute, against a few seconds under Ubuntu 16.04) b. my scanner is sheet fed, but gets identified as a flatbed scanner, which results in some options being grayed out in "Image Scan!"
