yes, and yes.

The question is whether the device would be recognized as `processor
target'.  The boot messages didn't seem to indicate this.  SANE is
also able to use pt devices (and i actually prefer this variant), all
you have to do is something like:

$  cat /usr/local/etc/sane.d/hp.conf 
HP
/dev/pt0
  option connect-device
         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

(The default is `connect-scsi'.)
