I agree this is permissions, but I ran into this same thing using saned to
set up a networked scanner. I had to modify permissions accordingly. Some
devices, for whatever reason, are by default readable/writable only by root.
I think that regardless of his configuration he will have to modify the
permissions on the device.

This is probably a result of your scanner device is not readable by
other users than root.
If you no what your scanner device is called you could change the
permissions for the
device so that all users can access it.
Another, better, solution would be to set it up as a networked scanner
by using saned.
The procedure is well described in the saned man page. Follow that
example and don't
forget to restart your xinetd to make it work. Also make sure that the
line "net" in
/etc/sane.d/dll.conf is not commented out. Add localhost to
/etc/sane.d/net.conf
That way your scanner device could be owned by one saned user, and the
access to
it could be controlled by editing the file /etc/sane.d/saned.users (see
the saned man page).
