I think you mean 0.8.<br>

<p>
Unfortunately not. The TMA option for this model has been reported to<br>
work by some users, but there is at least one user who is having the<br>
same problem.<br>
<p>
scan looks fine. Especially, because it is a grayscale scan the backend<br>
simply copies the data that it receives from the device into the frontend<br>
buffer (as it does in flatbed mode). The number of pixels per line and<br>
bytes per line are as expected as well as the total number of bytes.<br>
<p>
The error in the second scan means 'Media not available', according<br>
to the documentation, so I suppose the contact to the TMA gets lost for<br>
some reason. I think the last command that is issued is received by the<br>
the scanner and actually starts a scan. That is why the device is busy<br>
at some point during the third attempt. The most important question,<br>
however, is why the image looks pixelized.<br>
