If I remember correctly: I added scanner to /etc/hotplug/blacklist (When I first configure it the scanner module was still there and I had compiled it with my kernel, it should not be necessary to add it now). Then in /etc/hotplug/usb/libsane.usermap I added a line for my scanner like the sample entry provided and replaced VVVV and PPPP by the values for my Epson 1240U. Lastly, I commented out the 'usb /dev/usb/scanner0' line I had added to the /etc/sane.d/epson.conf file and added a new line with simply 'usb' on it.
