hello,
suse 9.1 will certainly be bundled with drivers for many scanners; however, the issue of individual model support has less to do with suse and more to do with the efforts of the open-source community as a whole. to wit, if a driver isn't available, then none of the major distros are likely to offer support - your best bet is to do some googling!
in my case, i struggled for ages trying to persuade a primax scanner to work, for which a driver was available but which required patching of modules etc.. in the end, i gave up and bought a relatively cheap epson unit which worked fine, out of the box, with no messing around..
