I don't know anything about the BSD Kernel, but with Linux you have to
compile the kernel with "generic scsi support", which is needed to use any
other scsi devices that is not a hd's and cd's.
The message you see on bootup is the output of the scsi-controller's
bus-scan, this means your scanner is detected correctly by the hardware,
but this says nothing about whether it is supported by your current
software setup.
