my scanner = Canoscan LiDE 100 couldn't use this scanner on 18.04 at all without getting a thick black line in the output. not a massive issue so far as it still worked ok on a 16.04 machine we've got. After checking back into this conversation today i tried to scan again on 18.04, issue was not resolved but then i tried the ppa mentoned above in comment #77 sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rolfbensch/sane-git sudo apt-get dist-upgrade tried again and bingo! black line has gone. Thank you to everyone involved!
