I don't know your scanner, but you should begin to use some command-line
tools to help to identify and diagnose your trouble: lsusb and scanimage
will show if your scanner is detected:

  $ lsusb
  Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
  Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
  Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
  Bus 002 Device 002: ID 03f0:0901 Hewlett-Packard ScanJet 2300c
  Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
  Bus 001 Device 002: ID 1234:0fff  
  Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

  $ scanimage -h
  Usage: scanimage [OPTION]...

(lot of text here... but at the end, the name of the detected device and
 specific options:)

  Options specific to device `genesys:libusb:002:002':

(still a lot of text)

  Type ``scanimage --help -d DEVICE'' to get list of all options for DEVICE.

  List of available devices:
      genesys:libusb:002:002

It's always easier for members of forums to help you with this
sort of information.
