Did you patch your sources or did you fetch the latest version from git?

I just added your scanner to git.

image_size is correct: image_size (lineart) = w * h / 8.

This is correct, because the backend calculates 1 byte per pixel and we
store 1 bit per pixel.

There seems to be a problem somewhere around post_process_image_data in
pixma_mp150.c. Please use the attached patch to generate log files of
gray and lineart scans. Please send them packed to avoid an unreadable
ML archive.

If you set "--threshold 90" there should be a usable result.
I need to have a look to gamma. Xsane works fine with threshold.

xsane 0.996 works fine for me.
