If you're using a newer Linux distribution that's LSB compliant, edit
"/etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules", find the line that begins
with "libusb device access" and change 0644 to 0666. (It might be in
"/lib/udev/rules.d")

  For my old scanner I created a custom udev rules file (symlinked as
/etc/udev/rules/55-scanmakerx12usl.rules

  You can try to modify it for your purpose (change idVendor and
idProduct attributes)...
