   According to "man xsane" ...   
           $HOME/.sane/xsane/devicename.rc   
                  For  each  device,  there  is one rc-file that holds the saved   
   settings for that particular device.  Nor‐   
                  mally, this file should not be manipulated directly.  Instead,   
   the user should use the xsane interface to   
                  select appropriate values and then save the device settings   
   using the "Preferences->Save Device Settings"   
                  menubar entry.
