You can think all you want. But the answer is a clear indication of the
opposite. The card seems to be failure if used with SANE.
So if no one can vouch for success you can only testify for failure from
your own experience. (Or to keep the score: Bad: 1 / Good: 0)
Scanners are known to be shipped with cheap cards. Some of them are too
much pain to bother and try to get some results out of them.
