REQUIREMENTS
PRE-INSTALL
1. If you're using an USB scanner, create the group 'scanner' and
add all users which need access to your device.
POST-INSTALL
1. To find the vendor/product id of your scanner, run the command:
# sane-find-scanner -q
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9, product=0x2204 [CanoScan FB630U] at libusb:001:005
You need the 'vendor' id (04a9) and the 'product' id (2204)
2. Check if /etc/udev/rules.d/libsane.rules already knows about
your scanner. If your scanner is not in this list, add a line
like the following, remember to replace 04a9 and 2204 with
your values:
SYSFS{idVendor}=="04a9", SYSFS{idProduct}=="2204", MODE="660", GROUP="scanner"
3. Check the file permissions in /dev/bus/usb after you have plugged
in your scanner device.
# ls -l /dev/bus/usb/001
