This seems to indicate that you could use
usb /dev/ugen0
in your SANE config file.

The normal procedure is to submit a bug report with send-pr, preferably
with patches. It should be enough to submit the information shown
above.

I have 6.0 (strongly suggest you upgrade) and don't have that scanner.
You should be able to add a line to the Canon section of usbdevs:
product CANON LIDE60 0x221c CanoScan LiDE60
and then add this line to the Canon section of uscanner.c:
{{ USB_VENDOR_CANON, USB_PRODUCT_CANON_LIDE60 }, 0 },
Then rebuild (make, make install). Probably need to -HUP usbd, also.
