Glad it worked out for you.
I don't know why your Sane is so different from mine. I cannot find the "Bind X and Y resolutions" option in Window - Show Advanced Options or Preferences - Setup.
But your Sane works and mine works, so everybody is happy.
Yep, it is good to be working especially when xsane scans the background colours, where the native epson scanner under windows doesn't retain the background colours even though the option to remove background colours is not selected. In my xsane, if I select Window->Show advance options, the options that are listed are 'Bind X and Y resolutions', Gamma (set to 1.8), JPEG Quality (set to 90) and Transfer Size (set to 1048). What causes the first checkbox to be displayed I have no idea, unless it has something to do with the imagescan software being installed, as sane is using the imagescan configuration file to access the scanner.

Thanks Mike, I had a look at your 'CANON:Canoscan9000FMarkII.drc' and it only has one line for Resolution which you have set at 300 as I do. My Epson drc file has two entries for Resolution, an X resolution and a Y resolution, which are reflected as such in the xsane gui where I have a 'Resolution in the X direction' dropdown and a 'Resolution in the Y direction' dropdown. After looking at your drc file I have now resolved the issue with the two resolution dropdowns being disabled. In the xsane advanced settings I had the checkbox for 'Bind X and Y resolutions' selected and when I unselected that checkbox the two resolution options became selectable and I could then select one of the 16 resolutions displayed for each of the X and Y resolutions, each of which if desired can be set to different values. I'm also not sure if my scanner supports all the resolutions being made available. I know it supports resolutions of 75, 150, 300, 600 and 1200, but I'm not sure if it supports the rest.
