I am not sure about what you mean by physically logged.
I am not using ssh or vnc, I was using xubuntu on a personal computer so I
guess I was physically logged.
As you can see in my previous message, I was not in the scanner group
neither and I do not know why.

Title:
Can not scan as user
Status in sane-backends package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
# Description
I can not scan as user using software like simple-scan or xsane.
If I run xsane and simple-scan with sudo, I can use my scanner.
It seems to be a permission issue
# Step to reproduce
1. Start xsane or simple-scan as user
2. xsane and simple-scan fail to scan, "device is not connected"
3. Start xsane or simple-scan with sudo
4. It works, you can scan
