Hi David,
you have to make your user member of the group "scanner". If you cannot figure
out how to do this through the configuration tools of archlinux (I am not
famliar with archlinux, so I cannot help) please edit (as root) /etc/group:
There should be an entry looking like this:
scanner:x:66:
the "66" can be any number, however, given your regular user's name is david,
please change this to
scanner:x:66:david
if you have other users working on this machine, please change into
scanner:x:66:david,wilma,fred,mary
and so on and so forth.
Hope this helps.
Take care
Dieter

if you really want to see the pictures above - use some font
