Scanimage script fails

[ionmich]

The output suggests a high USB 2.0 (high speed) device connected to a USB 3.0 host controller (using xhci_hcd driver). If your BIOS allows, you might try enabling ‘Legacy USB Support’, then check behaviour again. Alternatively, does your computer have a mixture of USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports available perhaps?

Some more diagnosis finally, and some vital information missing from my posts. Likely due to jet lag.

1. The script I wrote that worked with 13.2 resides on an older machine (possibly only USB2 hardware) in another country 12 hours flying away.
2. The reason I wrote the script was because Xsane and other applications took a long time to start due to long warmup time.
3. The scanner it worked with is an older Epson.
4. The scanner I am using here and now is a Canon Lide 110.
5. Xsane, which is excellent in my opinion, no longer requires warmup and is fully functional. No reason not to use it.

Just because I am old and resistant to change is no reason to waste other people’s time with unneeded questions. Many thanks for all the thought and help you provided.
