use scanner without admin priv



Dear all,

we have an Epson flatbed scanner attached to an XP-SP2 box. The scanner
software starts only with Admin rights, when doubleclicked by normal
users it closes immediately.
Is there a way to allow users to use the scanner without making them all
admins?

TIA,
Uwe
