The 3 alternatives can work in parallel, it is not excluded!
If you use your device in usb with imagescan you don't need ippusbxd or 
ipp-usb.
It is possible that your device is not visible by imagescan because of 
ippusbxd.
The commands I gave you only provide sane-escl which is integrated with 
sane.
Alexander provided you with the links to install ipp-usb and 
sane-airscan.
