Thanks Rodrigo,
I tried adding in the additional environment variable and rebooted the
machine - when I do:
$ scanimage -L
device `xerox_mfp:libusb:001:006' is a Samsung Samsung SCX-4500W Series
multi-function peripheral
But if I do it again then:
scanimage -L
No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).
So it is still not working - when I went to the GIMP and tried to create a
scan it hung GIMP after not finding any scanner devices.
Plus journalctl -xn has:

So clearly I am missing something in the configs somewhere - but I don't
know where to look next?
