I try to setup my microtek scanmaker 3840 which has fully support from sane but it always show me this :
Quote:
scanimage -T
scanimage: open of device sm3840:libusb:001:004 failed: Access to resource has been denied

while running scanimage -L give me this :
Quote:
device `sm3840:libusb:001:004' is a Microtek ScanMaker 3840 flatbed scanner

and this my lsusb report :
Quote:
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 05da:30d4 Microtek International, Inc.

my gruops :

and i have edit my /etc/sane.d/plustek.conf
Code:
# Plustek-SANE Backend configuration file
# For use with LM9831/2/3 based USB scanners
#

# each device needs at least two lines:
# - [usb] vendor-ID and product-ID
# - device devicename
# i.e. for Plustek (0x07B3) UT12/16/24 (0x0017)
# [usb] 0x07B3 0x0017
# device /dev/usbscanner
# or
# device libusb:bbb:ddd
# where bbb is the busnumber and ddd the device number
# make sure that your user has access to /proc/bus/usb/bbb/ddd
#
# additionally you can specify some options
# warmup, lOffOnEnd, lampOff
#
# For autodetection use
# [usb]
# device /dev/usbscanner
#
# or simply
# [usb]
#
# or if you want a specific device but you have no idea about the
# device node or you use libusb, simply set vendor- and product-ID
# [usb] 0x07B3 0x0017
# device auto
#
# NOTE: autodetection is safe, as it uses the info it got
#       from the USB subsystem. If you're not using the
#       autodetection, you MUST have attached that device
#       at your USB-port, that you have specified...

try scanimage -T as root.
If root has access, it is a permissions problem.
If this is a usb connected scanner, it may be the way udev is setting up the device.
The rules are in /etc/udev/rules.d

Sorry to bump this old thread, but I have a Microtek Scanmaker 4800, which is the same as the 3840 and it doesn't work with the 1.0.19 backends, but does with the 1.0.18 backend. So you might want to try installing the older version.
