    Hi Doug,
    I didn't realize at first that you mentioned two different problems.

    Is it correct that the problem only occurs with xsane but not with xscanimage?

    So let's try to find out a bit about this problem:
    - what was the last version (build=?) of the umax backend you used before sane-1.0.3 that worked correct?
    - The "Failed to start scanner" does not always happen?

    Please edit umax.c, line 3951 and change the -1 to 0 for
    dev->pause_after_reposition

    then reset the scanner (off/on)

    and tell me if that changes anything!

    Bye
    Oliver
