Bug Description

I added the following line to /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane-extras.rules (I copied it to /etc/udev/rules.d):

SYSFS{idVendor}=="04b8", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0848", MODE="0664", GROUP="scanner", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes"

This was required to allow non-root users to scan with the Epson Stylus Office BX300F flatbed scanner. Without this, the scan worked fine with root only.

This fix does not work any more, because the printer/scanner is supported by a different driver. Apparently the MODE= and GROUP= attributes aren't required any more.
