This was also what I thought, but I can't seem to get it right: In my devfs.conf I have: # Allow all users to use the scanner perm ugen0 0666 perm usb 0666 perm usb0 0666 perm usb1 0666 But when I plugin the scanner, ugen0 and ugen0.* has permissions crw-r--r-- sane-find-scanner doesn't show any scanners. Then I manually set the permissions on ugen0 to give write permissions to all, and sane-find-scanner finds the scanner, but scanimage still doesn't work. I would expect either both or none to work. To investigate furhter, I ran sane-find-scanner verbose: This is sane-find-scanner from sane-backends 1.0.15 searching for SCSI scanners: checking /dev/scanner... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/scanner0... failed to open (Invalid argument) ... searching for USB scanners: checking /dev/uscanner... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/uscanner0... failed to open (Invalid argument) ... device 0x04b8/0x0121 is not configured that is when there is no write permissions to ugen0, setting write permissions on ugen0 the last device line becomes found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0121 [EPSON Scanner]) at libusb:/dev/usb0:/dev/ugen0 Unfortunately, running scanimage verbose doesn't show anything about probing for devices.
