I forgot to mention that also needed is something like /etc/udev/rules.d/59-local.rules.
In my upgraded installation it has not changed since 16.04 and looks like this:
---------------
# Brother MFC-J220
ATTRS{idVendor}=="04f9", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0259", MODE="0664", GROUP="scanner", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes"

---------------

Of course 'idProduct' has to match the local scanner model, 'lsusb' and 'sane-find-scanner' are your friends.
