The root user (or sudo virtualbox) can access to USB devices. I have executed the following commands without success (the tested user is "marco"): usermod -a -G vboxusers marco usermod -a -G vboxsf marco Please write me if you need more information. PS After a successive check, I noticed that the "root" user (that I have enabled in my Ubuntu Xenial) can see the usb scanner (that requires XP drivers) but the TWAIN driver does not detect the scanner. VirtualBox show the USB scanner as attached.
