I experienced a similar problem (besides some others)
when writing the backend for the ScanExpress models.
The reason for this problem was that the scanner does
not start necessarily with a red line on each read
(depending on resolution, buffer size).

Maybe the line distance code for the SE works even
for your scanner, so try the following:

Get the pre-1.00 of SANE, change in output_data (file backend/mustek.c)

if (s->hw->flags & MUSTEK_FLAG_SE)
num_lines = fix_line_distance_se (s, num_lines,
bpl, data, extra);

to

s->ld.peak_res = SANE_UNFIX(s->val[OPT_RESOLUTION].w);
if ((s->hw->flags & MUSTEK_FLAG_SE) || 1)
num_lines = fix_line_distance_se (s, num_lines,
bpl, data, extra);

recompile, install ...

But use *ONLY* scanimage, and with a resolution of 75, 150, 300, 600dpi.
Otherwise your system will certainly
crash!
