Sounds like the same problem I had - On the client machine, you have to tell it where to find the scanner. In
/etc/sane.d/net.conf make sure you have an entry with either the IP address of the server or the server name if you're using DNS For example, I added the line 192.168.1.100 Worked like a champ.
