in my xinetd, my service file is "sane-port" not just "sane" 
(/etc/xinetd.d/sane-port)

not sure if you're using tcpwrappers or not, but you may need the following in 
/etc/hosts.allow

sane-port: 192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0
saned: 192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0

and in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf, the "net" must be uncommented.

you may also need to expand your sane-port xinetd service definition.  mine 
looks like:

service sane-port
        {
                disable = no
                port = 6566
                socket_type = stream
                protocol = tcp
                wait = no
                user = nobody
                group = nobody
                server = /usr/sbin/saned
                only_from = 192.168.2.0/24
                bind = 192.168.2.3
                flags = IPv4
        }

it all works here.  -a
