You could have a look at this question What libraries do I need to use a paper scanner in java?

But basically, depending on the platform you're aiming for you could try

JTwain and/or JSane

or try Morena

I've used Morena in the past and found it very easy to use, but I'm waiting for there WIA implementation to be completed
