  ... that's a known problem. You can only do this once and then you have to
  reset the scanner. I don't have an idea yet why, but this is on my list
  of things to work out. It's no real problem, because it only happens
  when you use the -T switch, the "normal" scanning works just fine (at
  least for me).

  Any reason why you are not using the internal termination?

  What happens if you just try to scan using either scanimage,
  xsane or xscanimage? From what I read in your post the only
  thing that does not work is the second invocation of scanimage -T.
  Is this correct?
