Yes here is my current canon.conf

#canon.conf
scsi CANON
/dev/scanner
/dev/sg0
I've tried adding the line below as cat  /proc/scsi/scsi
gave me the following output
Attached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 02 Lun: 00
  Vendor: CANON    Model: IX-27015C        Rev: 1.15
  Type:   Scanner  

/dev/scsi/CANON IX-27015C 0 00 02 00
and I've tried changing the second line to scsi CANON IX-27015C 0 00 02 00

I've installed the frontends.
Unfortunately the problem persists as if I run sane-find-scanner both scanners 
are correctly detected see below

found SCSI scanner "CANON IX-27015C 1.15" at /dev/sg0
  # Your SCSI scanner was detected. It may or may not be supported by SANE. 
Try
  # scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.

found USB scanner (vendor=0x055f, product=0x021c [USB Scanner], chip=GT-6816) 
at libusb:001:005
found USB scanner (vendor=0x0bc7, product=0x0004) at libusb:001:004
  # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported 
by
  # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.

but if I run scanimage -L even as root I get the following

Password:
device `gt68xx:libusb:001:005' is a Mustek Bearpaw 1200 CU Plus flatbed 
scanner

Only the USB flatbed shows up
