As said above:

[Desktop]$ scanimage --format=tiff --resolution=300 > scan.tiff
scanimage: received signal 15
scanimage: trying to stop scanner
scanimage: received signal 15
scanimage: aborting

[Desktop]$ scanimage -T
scanimage: received signal 15
scanimage: trying to stop scanner
scanimage: received signal 15
scanimage: aborting

[Desktop]$ scanimage -L
device `avision:libusb:003:003' is a Hewlett-Packard ScanJet 5370C 
flatbed scanner

It is somewhat better: at least X is not crashing this way.
