(Canon Pixma MP230)

scanimage -V
-> scanimage (sane-backends) 1.0.24; backend version 1.0.24

scanimage -L
-> device `v4l:/dev/video0' is a Noname BisonCam, NB Pro virtual device
device `pixma:04A9175F_315075' is a CANON Canon PIXMA MP230 multi-function peripheral

scanimage --device pixma:04A9175F_315075 --format=tiff > test.tiff
-> no work :-(

sudo scanimage --device pixma:04A9175F_315075 --format=tiff > test.tiff
-> works fine :-)

In the file '/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/49-sane.rules'is the following entry for my Canon:

# Canon PIXMA MP230
ATTRS{idVendor}=="04a9", ATTRS{idProduct}=="175f", MODE="0664", GROUP="scanner", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes"

I have changed "0664" to "0666" - with the same result, only sudo can scan :-(

The Tipp from Wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sane):

"Make sure that /var/lock/sane directory exists, that its permissions are 660, and that it is owned by <user>:scanner ..."
works also not ...

It is a permission problem? I am in the groups 'scanner' and 'lp'
This task depends upon
