I suppose that you mean that chmod 0666 /proc/bus/usb/001/007 does not
work ...

No idea. This number should can vary depending on reboot.

I have a Perfection 1250 , iscan-1.8.1-0.redhat.8.0 installed.

Here is my dll.conf
$ more dll.conf
# enable the next line if you want to allow access through the network:
epkowa


Here is my epkowa.conf :
$ more epkowa.conf
# epkowa.conf
#
# examples for how to configure the SANE EPSON KOWA Backend
#
# SCSI scanner:
#scsi EPSON
#
# Parallel port scanner:
#pio 0x278
#pio 0x378
#pio 0x3BC
#
# USB scanner - only enable this if you have an EPSON scanner. It could
#               otherwise block your non-EPSON scanner from being
#               recognized.
usb


After each reboot, I am doing the appropriate chmod, and I have no
problem using iscan on my scanner.

More info (maybe not useful)
$ rpm -qa | grep sane
sane-backends-1.0.13-7
xsane-0.92-10
sane-frontends-1.0.11-4
xsane-gimp-0.92-10
