Situation with Ubuntu 16.04 (64 bits):

- workaround in 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sane-backends/+bug/1026159/comments/2 
is no longer needed, as both /etc/sane.d/xerox_mfp.conf and 
/lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules have now the required lines;
- workaround in 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sane-backends/+bug/1026159/comments/9 
(edit /etc/sane.d/example.co) seems to have no effects
- printer works, but scanner doesn't work, and Ubuntu complains with an 
"Additional software needed" message, and then suggesting that drivers should 
be downloaded from the Samsung website.
- after installing the "Samsung Printer Linux/UNIX Driver package", Simple Scan 
can "find" the scanner, but complains with a "Failed to scan. Unable to connect 
to scanner" error.

So, no scanner available for now in Ubuntu 16.04 :-)

Bdw, which is the last version of Ubuntu that the scanner is proven to
work (I was using 14.04 before)?
