No.

 You can either add a file to /etc/security/console.perms.d to set the user
permissions just for your scanner, or if you want to make all usb devices
available you can just put this into /etc/security/console.perms.d/usb.perms:

<usbdevices>=/dev/bus/usb/*/*
<console>  0600 <usbdevices>

You could also use the "big hammer approach and just put the appropriate chmod
command into /etc/rc.local

No idea.
