http://www.sane-project.org/README.linux , read the "Permissions:" section.

"One solution to set permissions on-the-fly is Linux udev which comes
with current distributions. SANE comes with a udev rules file in the
tools/udev directory which may be used by distributions or can be copied
to /etc/udev/rules.d manually. The file format is explained on top of
the file itself. Either you need libusb 0.1.12 or newer or
USB_DEVFS_PATH=/dev/bus/usb must be exported as a system-wide
environment variable."
