I tried the genesys backend from the official 1.0.29 release and it works fine. Please make sure that makes it into 20.04, which right now is still the broken 1.0.27 experimental version.

The proposed uploads should fix the issue. They are available in this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/ubuntu/sane-backends [Test case] 1. Install the libsane (libsane1 in bionic), libsane-common and sane-utils packages from {bionic,disco]-proposed. 2. Use an affected device to scan, and find that the issue is no longer present. [Regression risk] Upstream commit, focused bug fix => low regression risk [Original description] On Windows it works but on my Ubuntu 17.10, 18.04 and 18.10 I see a black band on scanned image. The scanner is Canon CanoScan LIDE100.
