Ranjan,
I have no experience with this, but have you tried adding your user to the xsane group? It could be that simple... maybe.

Hello,
I have an old HP PSC2410 scanner/fax/printer which I have managed to get started all right upon installing hplip hpijs libsane-hpaio hplip-libs hplip-common (some may be superfluous) and using the text-based interactive setup. I also installed xsane.
I am most interested in the scanner: I managed to get this working just fine, but only under root (sudo xsane). Is there a way to get this started as a mortal user (little me)?
Many thanks, Ranjan
