Hello, I use Archlinux distribution and I just added my scanner to the udev rules.
Actually it is the 53-sane-rules, and I added theses lines: # Brother DCP-330C ATTRS{idVendor}=="04f9", ATTRS{idProduct}=="01a9", MODE="0666", GROUP="scanner", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes" just after the "# Brother DCP-310CN" 2 lines. Additionnally, for the scanner to be used as normal user, the permissions for Brother scanners should all be in mode 0666, as shown at Brother's documentation: http://solutions.brother.com/linux/en_us/instruction_scn1c.html "Scanner Setting for normal user" As the Opensuse 11 was the more similar configuration file in comparision of mine, I took that one example, to get my scanner to scan as normal user : it works. :) Thanks for adding my model to future versions of sane configuration files. My best greetings, M?lodie.
