Previously this seemed to work fine. I've gone through it a couple of times with no success. I suspect I'm missing something obvious. My best clue is that scanimage -L finds nothing. sane-find-scanner doesn't find the scanner, but sudo sane-find-scanner does.
Here's my terminal output:

No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).
