Using SANE_DEFAULT_DEVICE makes only sense if several devices are
available and one shall be selected.

The device name is wrong anyway (compare it to the one given by
sane-find-scanner). Most probably the correct one is:

plustek:libusb:/dev/usb0:/dev/ugen0

Just running "scanimage -L" without any defaoult device should print
the full device name.

Wrong device.

If the scanner isn't found without setting SANE_DEFAULT_DEVICE,
provide a log file (SANE_DEBUG_PLUSTEK=255).

Bye,
  Henning
