 Thanks for the quick answer.

Both of the commands gave approximately the same result, a grayscale
image of a colour original.

  I will attach the scanned files.

The way that Simple scan worked in Ubuntu 10.04 was excellent for me. I
scan mostly text into pdf-files and the black and white text option in
Simple scan was fast. Simple scan is a very good tool in its simplicity.
