SANE 3.3 / OS X 10.8 "error during device I/O"

[ibmportablepc]

I have just installed SANE version 3.3 on OS X 10.8.5.

scanimage -L returns: device `fujitsu:M4097Ddm:50331648’ is a FUJITSU M4097Ddm scanner

However, scanimage -T  returns:

scanimage: scanning image of size 3400x4400 pixels at 1 bits/pixel
scanimage: acquiring gray frame, 1 bits/sample
scanimage: reading one scanline, 425 bytes... FAIL Error: Error during device I/O

Needless to say, I cannot scan anything.

Am I best to simply upgrade to the latest version of SANE, which in turn is only available as a binary for the OS X El Capitan, or could this be something simple?

Okay, I have now updated another Mac to 10.11.1 and installed SANE 3.5 with no change...I can still see the scanner, however I cannot scan.

I assume you insalled TWAIN SANE 3.5, because the current version of
SANE backends is 1.0.25.

I don't recall ever having a report from an OSX user of a SCSI Fujitsu
scanner, and don't have the ability to test this myself. But, we might
be able to figure it out with a debugging log. At the terminal, run:

SANE_DEBUG_FUJITSU=35 scanimage -T 2>m4097.log

Then send me m4097.log

Also, you might try a scan without the -T, that has been know to cause
issues in the past.

Yes, your are correct. I have installed SANE backends 1.0.25 and TWAIN SANE 3.5 Mac OS X binaries from  Mattias Ellerts's MAC OS X SANE Binaries

There are now now installed on two Mac's one of which is running the latest version of OS X, being 10.11.1 El Capitan, with all available updates installed.
