I've performed the upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04 over the Christmas break which has restored all the repositories back to default (I was using the PPA from Rolf's PPA to work round this) and can confirm it's all working now. There's still the massive delay on the start of the initial scan (as mention

re #31, in my original bug report, I'd tentatively concluded this was an issue with USB3 and I note in your report you also have issues with USB3. For me, as I mentioned in #23, installing the updated sane backends pretty much fixed this problem for me on a USB3 root hub. It's still fairly temperam

Allow me to retract my last comment, those eagle eyed amongst you may have spotted the syntax error in my use of the scanimage command (should be --format not -format, clearly operator incompetence there). With that corrected, I too can also confirm correct operation with the Scanjet. There does ap

I installed sane-backends - 1.0.25-git20150121-precise0 and upgraded libsane, sane-utils and libsane-common but this didn't fix the issue for me. scanimage -L now appears to consistently identify the scanner: device `plustek:libusb:001:019' is a Hewlett-Packard Scanjet 2100c flatbed scanner but

No it isn't a gneral USB3 problem - I would imagine far more people would be getting excited if it was (although I've seen some sporadic disconnects with USB1 printers but not convinced that is related). My guess (and it is just a guess) is that it is something about the userspace interface that th

Public bug reported: I have a HP Scanject 2100c and a Canoscan LIDE-25 both of which use the Sane plustek backend for comms. My PC only has a USB 3 root hub, when either of these devices are connected, either directly or via an external USB 2 hub, they do not work. In general (although not always
