I tried the no_reset option but xscanimage still hung when I tried to scan an image. The scanner is properly
terminated, too, as far as I know: the SCSI cable goes from the computer to the scanner's SCSI Port 1, and
there's a terminator on the scanner's SCSI port 2. Do you know how I'd find out if this is an IRQ conflict, and
if it is, how I'd fix it? :)

Thanks,

Eric
