I have also confirmed that the permission problem affects the same scanners shared through saned. It seems that the problem affects most anything other than multifunction/AiO devices and is probably due to the changes related to the removal of the scanner group: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hal/+bug/195782/comments/14
With these scanners connected:
device `brother2:bus4;dev2' is a Brother MFC-440CN USB scanner
device `umax:/dev/sg5' is a UMAX Vista-S8 flatbed scanner
device `snapscan:libusb:002:003' is a AGFA SNAPSCAN 1212U_2 flatbed scanner
device `rts8891:libusb:004:002' is a Hewlett-Packard 4470c flatbed scanner
device `microtek:/dev/sg4' is a Microtek ScanMaker E3 flatbed scanner
device `hp:libusb:004:003' is a Hewlett-Packard ScanJet 5200C flatbed scanner
Mustek parallel port scanner at "parport0"
Only the MFC-440CN is detected by LSS without configuration. They all function after scanner-access-enabler is used.
