There shouldn't be a problem here. The purpose of saned is to share
scanners that are physically attached to the local system, so that
remote systems can use them. If the scanner is already accessible over
the network, a remote system can connect to it without using saned.

As I understand it, this is an upstream design choice. saned doesn't let
users select which scanners to share, it just shares any scanners that
it can see. I think if network scanners were shared, then 2 saned
instances on the same network get into a loop sharing the same
scanner(s) recursively.

To advise, the saned documentation has been rewritten. Hence, could you
please advise if it helps following
