This is normal. My scanner does the same thing. I assume they
operate the stepper motor in a different mode to get the additional y
resolution.

That's normal too. Mustek told me at one point it's impossible to
avoid backtracking when the scsi buffer fills up. I'm not sure I
believe that completely anymore since we were able to get rid of the
backtracing in lineart & gray mode. But for color mode, there is
indeed no solution other than using a huge scsi buffer (at least as
far as we know).
