Epson Perfection 3490: now always warming up with each individual scan

I noticed now that the carriage isn't returned properly,
stops about 1/3 in the return.  It's being returned
properly first when a next scan happens. What gives?

... but then after that next scan the same thing happens.
This is with sane-backends-1.0.1[678].

I tried to 'reset' the scanner by pulling the plug at the
moment when the carriage reaches its initial position after
a scan command has been given, before the actual scan is
carried out, but after the scan is completed it again stops
at about 1/3 on the home stretch.

The scanner worked without a hitch before with at least
sane-backends-1.0.16.

Any advice, or anyone experience with this?

I haven't seen this happening but then again I'm not using
the
snapscan backend 

You could try iscan with the non-free binary-only (i386)
plugin this
model needs.  Downloadable via:

Hope this helps,
