You can create it in GIMP if its installed. Start GIMP:
[Code}
Select File-->Create-->Xsane Device Dialog and input printer name etc. 
[/CODE]
Mine for some reason already had the device defined but with wrong usb 
port. I just did the above Create with correct port. Scan worked fine 
then.

I'm still not sure why XSane won't work.

Remember if you execute the command brscan-key to start the program it 
needs to be started as root.
