USB-Scanners are supported in principle. Using libusb is recommended.
Problems when using libusb:
Older kernels may need to be compiled WITHOUT DIAGNOSTIC. Disable it in the
config file or use a GENERIC kernel without DIAGNOSTIC. If it is, you will get
errors like "ugenioctl: USB_SET_TIMEOUT, no pipe". Make sure, that /dev/ugen*
and /dev/usb* devices are available. Use /dev/MAKEDEV to create them, if
necessary.

If you want to use libusb, disable the uscanner driver.
Problems with uscanner driver:
The uscanner driver also works (tested with the plustek backend). As the
uscanner driver can't detect the vendor and product ids automatically, it's
necessary to add the name of the device file to the backends's configuration
file. Some backends also need the vendor and product id of the scanner.
Some backends won't work with the uscanner driver becasue they need USB
control messages. Use libusb instead.
