    8   1. To find the vendor/product id of your scanner, run the command:
    9 
   10      # sane-find-scanner -q
   11      found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9, product=0x2204 [CanoScan FB630U] at libusb:001:005
   12 
   13      You need the 'vendor' id (04a9) and the 'product' id (2204)
   14 
   15   2. Check if /etc/udev/rules.d/libsane.rules already knows about 
   16      your scanner. If your scanner is not in this list, add a line 
   17      like the following, remember to replace 04a9 and 2204 with 
   18      your values:
   19 
   20      SYSFS{idVendor}=="04a9", SYSFS{idProduct}=="2204", MODE="660", GROUP="scanner"
   21   
   22   3. Check the file permissions in /dev/bus/usb after you have plugged 
   23      in your scanner device.
   24 
   25      # ls -l /dev/bus/usb/001
