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.
