Ok, I moved a bit further... The scanner is detected by
sane-find-scanner, thus by the operating system IIUC:
,-----[ sane-find-scanner ]

It is also found by Sane:
,-----[ scanimage -L ]
| device `pixma:04A91709_F00102' is a CANON Canon PIXMA MP150 multi-function peripheral
`-----
But it's failing to scan:
,-----[ scanimage > image.pnm ]
| scanimage: received signal 15
| scanimage: trying to stop scanner
| scanimage: sane_read: Operation was cancelled
`-----
I'll study a bit more about how to get more debug info. Thanks.
