Same problem here:

Canon CanoScan 9000F
sane-backends 1.0.23
simple-scan 3.2.1/3.4.0

- scanning a document in several resolutions (300, 600, 1200dpi) results in output files of same size, all seems to be scanned at 600dpi
- scanner noise sounds equal (while normally sounds "faster" at 300dpi and much "slowlier" at 1200dpi)
- when saved as PDF, only the 600dpi scan has the correct screen size at 100% scale
- "crop to A4 size" from menu only works correct at 600dpi, when scanning at other resolutions the cropped area is too small/too big

Scanning with xsane and skanlite works correct on all resolutions, so it seems to be a simple-scan problem.

How can I help to narrow down the issue? I'm willing to make an reasonable effort to this (within the borders of my knowledge ;-), as simple-scan is a very helpful tool in daily usage (like document archiving).

TIA,
