No it isn't.


/etc/devfs.conf deals with devices avaiable at boot time - cdrom drives
etc

devices that are plugged in and unplugged - usb gadgets like scanners :-)
- are handled by /etc/devfs.rules


So get rid of that entry in /etc/devfs.conf and insert the right thing in
/etc/devfs.rules

Mine looks like this:-


[system=10]
add path 'unlpt*' mode 0660 group cups
add path 'ulpt*' mode 0660 group cups
add path 'lpt*' mode 0660 group cups
## Glyn added these below
add path 'da*'  mode 0660 group operator
add path 'uscanner*' mode 0660 group operator
add path 'tap*' mode 0660 group operator

You will want to change operator to scanner for your scanner group. 




That first line gives the ruleset a name and a number; then in
/etc/rc.conf you should put the line

devfs_system_ruleset="system"

That should work after a reboot.
