looking at those informative pages I think /dev/sg2 is the scanner
should that not be in group scanner ?

root@pumpkin:/# ls -l /dev |grep cdrom
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root           3 Jul 30 17:36 cdrom -> sr0
crw-rw----+ 1 root cdrom    21,   2 Jul 30 17:36 sg2
brw-rw----+ 1 root cdrom    11,   0 Jul 30 17:36 sr0

I don't see why it should be. I too have

  crw-rw----+ 1 root cdrom    21,   2 Jul 30 17:36 sg1

on bullseye. Note the +. Its an ACL. systemd, and libpam-systemd have
taken care of the correct permissions on the scanner device file. Try

  getfacl /dev/sg2

(Did you ever say in this thread what the printer/scanner is?)

I thought it was in there, it's fujitsu fi-5750c
The scanbd.conf says
user saned
group scanner

I'm wondering if this is why I'm having difficulty saving scans anywhere other than /tmp and getting permission denied writing to a file with a script both in /etc/scanbd/scripts called from scanbd.conf
How to find which is the scanner in /dev if it is supposed to be there?
Xsane works fine.
