All the information we have is listed in the scanner search engine:
http://sane.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/cgi-bin/driver.pl?manu=canon&model=646&bus=any

So as a summary: There is no driver yet. But you could contact the
maintainer of the canon630u backend and find out, if these scanners
are really similar and if your scanner can be supported by that
backend. Please tell us the result. The maintainer is: Nathan Rutman
<nathan@gordian.com>.

If the scanners are completely different, it's up to you to write a
new backend:
