  I don`t think it is a problem of xsane. When it is a problem of SANE then
  it would be a problem of the umax backend. But the Astra 1220S is known
  to be supported very well.

  Make sure your scsi chain is correct (cable length<300cm (<150cm if an ultra scsi device
  is connected), both ends of the chain terminated!

  Then make sure that disconnect/reconnect of the scsi driver (if available) is disabled!

  Bye
