I am trying to set up a HP Scanjet 2200c on gentoo (kernel 2.6.12-gentoo-r9)
I have been all over the web for two days and have tried to follow many how 
tos, but with no luck. 

I can access and use the scanner with root, but not with any users.
I know this is a common problem, but I can not find the solution.

lsusb:
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 03f0:0605 Hewlett-Packard ScanJet 2200c

sane-find-scanner -v:
...scsi stuff...
....
searching for USB scanners:
checking /dev/usb/scanner... failed to open (Invalid argument)
....same for rest of /dev/*
.....
found USB scanner (vendor=0x03f0 [Hewlett-Packard], product=0x0605 [HP ScanJet 
2200C], chip=LM9832/3) at libusb:001:005

scanimage -L (as root)
device `plustek:libusb:001:005' is a Hewlett-Packard Scanjet 2200c USB flatbed 
scanner

scanimage -L (as user)
doesn't find anything

plustek.conf
[usb] 0x03f0 0x0605
device auto

I added to /etc/udev/10-udev.rules
# scanner devices
scanner:root:scanner:0660
usb/scanner*:root:scanner:0660

Anybody point me to a good how to or have a solution? I have already done the 
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Installing_USB_Scanner with no luck.
