No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).

found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9 [Canon], product=0x2206 [CanoScan], chip=LM9832/3) at libusb:002:002
...but scanimage -L found no scanners. This scanner uses the
sane-plustek backend, so I added my user to the _saned group, and I had
changed the ownership on (in my case) /dev/ugen0.* and /dev/usb2 per the
sane-backends pkg-readme. Something else was wrong.
Running the the scanimage program under ktrace revealed:
98418 scanimage NAMI "/var/spool/lock/LCK..libusb:002:002"
98418 scanimage RET open -1 errno 13 Permission denied
Looking at /ver/spool/lock, it appears that this lockfile should be
created in the sane/ subdirectory instead?
$ ls -l /var/spool/lock/
total 4
drwxrwxr-x 2 root _saned 512 May 17 16:12 sane
I don't see anything in /etc/sane.d/plustek.conf that implies that I can
change the lockfile location, so not sure how to correct this?
