For comparison, here's mine: speedy# sane-find-scanner /dev/uscanner0 # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that # you have loaded a SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter. found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8, product=0x010a) at /dev/uscanner0 Now it's just a matter of specifying the scanner device name in /usr/local/etc/sane.d/hp.conf. My copy of SANE has this for the 5200C: usb 0x03f0 0x0401 These should match the codes returned by your scanner. If they don't, add another line to hp.conf. Then, *I think* you need the line /dev/uscanner0 at the end of the hp.conf file. That should work for root. However, you will need to change permissions on the device or change group membership for it to work for other users. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA
