I'm also affected by this bug: Epson Perfection 3490 Photo as regular user (member of "scanner" group): $ sane-find-scanner [...] could not open USB device 0x1d6b/0x0002 at 010:001: Access denied (insufficient permissions) found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0122 [EPSON Scanner]) at libusb:001:002 could not open USB device 0x1d6b/0x0002 at 001:001: Access denied (insufficient permissions) [...] $ scanimage -L
No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different, check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages). $ls -l /dev/bus/usb/001/002 crw-rw-r--+ 1 root root 189, 1 Sep 7 21:15 /dev/bus/usb/001/002 Does this device correspond to my scanner?. Shouldn't it be owned by the scanner group? (But changing group ownership to scanner doesn't fix the scanimage -L issue.) Before the update to 14.04, scanning worked just fine. It's a regression. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to sane-backends in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/270185 Title: sane-find-scanner sees scanner, scanimage -L does not Status in “sane-backends” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: sane-find-scanner returns "found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8, product=0x0130) at libusb:001:004 . scanimage -L returns "No scanners were identified...." this occurs in Ubuntu 8.04, with all patches. xsane 0.995-1ubuntu1 is installed.
