Usually this means that sanei_usb_find_devices was called. This function checks all /dev/usb/scanner? and /dev/usbscanner? devices. If the device file exists but doesn't represent a scanner, the Linux scanner module prints these warnings. E.g. if /dev/usbscanner0 and /dev/usbscanner1 exists but only one scanner is connected to the computer a warning like this will be printed: scanner.c: open_scanner(1): Unable to access minor data So this will happen everytime scanimage -L is called, at least with newer versions of the Linux scanner driver.
