Holden,

Thank you!

I created the following rule and now it is working as expected:

-------------
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="04a9", ATTR{idProduct}=="2220", SYMLINK+="%k", GROUP="scanner"
-------------

As you can see, instead of giving a 777 permissions, I changed scanner's group, thus only users allowed to scan can access the scanner.
