What is your output here?

Yes, of course. Here is the output of "ps uax | grep usb"

Does that look familiar to you?

I was more restrictive in my choices. But I followed your configuration here,
recompiled the kernel, rebooted.....no improvement.

1) Do you have special scanner-entries in your /etc/usbd.conf?
    Although, I see the correct attachment in the console:
     uscanner0: Hewlett-Packard HP ScanJet 5200C, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 2

2) I have a printer attached to parallel port.
    But I suppose there's no interference with that, is there?

Rob.
