The "sda1" thing is what you see for USB Mass Storage Devices.
  In other words, a USB-based thumb drive, digital camera card reader, hard drive. zip drive, etc.
  Scanners and web cams use a different interface for USB.
  You can usually find out information about support for specific models of USB devices here:

  and for scanners at:
  http://sane-project.org/
  It will probably require the installation of additional programs in order to work, like Video4Linux to give an example.
  Hope this helps.
