I was getting the same problem until I realised that this is powered from the USB port. I was also getting a core dump when trying to access it from Linux. Try reducing the length of the USB cable from the scanner to the computer and/or use a different USB port. The length of the cable is significant because the volts drop over even a short cable could cause problems. When I had this issue, I had a very long USB cable and it was coming up with error after error, when I used a much shorter one, the problem went away.
Good luck and best wishes,
Martin

Go to Device Manager at USB Controllers and disable Standard Enhaced PCI to USB Host Controller. If you can't find exactly this, disable the one with the word Enhaced in it. Right click it then click disable.
