Allow Ubuntu to find scanner

I had an issue with Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04 not being able to scan using my multi-functional device. Turns out I needed to install libusb….

sudo apt install libusb-0.1-4
scanimage -L

Running the scanimage command should return a message identifying your scanner.
Sorted.
