Hi, I had a similar problem with my HP Scanjet 6300. Although I fiddled with the timeout in the libsane code, I found that the real problem was dust! Although the glass was clean, the internal mirrors were covered in a thick layer of dust and the scanner was having trouble self-calibrating. Cleaning the internal mirrors made the scanner operate much faster, more reliably and with better image quality!
