Title:
  Detected scanner fails to open device, "Invalid Argument"

Status in sane-backends package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Hello,

  I've installed the latest drivers from the Brother support website for
  my Brother DCP-165C. Printing works fine, but I can't get scanning
  working... I have followed all instructions provided by the Brother
  support website (udev rules, etc). I'm running Ubuntu Server 11.10.

  No matter whether I'm running scanimage (or xsane) as sudo or not, I'm 
getting the same error message:
  "scanimage: open of device brother3:bus2;dev1 failed: Invalid argument"

  You can find a strace attached (ran with sudo).

  Some more outputs:
  scanimage -L
  device `brother3:bus2;dev1' is a Brother DCP-165C USB scanner
