When I try to scan, using simple-scan, the UI says Failed to scan -- Unable to connect to scanner. When I run it from the command line I get:

joel@home:/usr/bin$ simple-scan -d

FYI, I have already done:

joel@home:~$ sudo chmod a+rwx /dev/bus/usb
joel@home:~$ sudo chmod a+rwx /dev/bus/usb/*

If I run under sudo:

joel@home:~$ sudo simple-scan

it works.

How can I get simple-scan to work without sudo?
