Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: simple-scan

At the moment I'm using my "Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500" document scanner with 
gscan2pdf. It works out of the box with Linux.
I tested simple-scan today and scanned one document (A4). But for my scanner I 
need the option the set the page size because my scanner uses the wrong default 
size (not A4).
So every scanned page is cropped on the bottom and it is a little to wide (as 
you can see on the screenshot)

This are the commands where I find out which extra options my scanner
provides and it shows me the default option too.

be...@lucid-desktop:~$ scanadf -L
device `fujitsu:ScanSnap S1500:303564' is a FUJITSU ScanSnap S1500 scanner

  Enhancement:
............. 

there are more option but you can see the page-width and page-height above.
The size of an A4 paper is 210 × 297
So you can see that this size differs from 215.872 x 279.364. So I need an 
option to manually set the page size for the scanner
