I used to be able to scan on my gentoo box from an HP officejet pro on

attempting to connect to TCP/6566 on the HP, but the HP is not listening
on that port.
Test command is;
hp-scan -dhpaio:/net/HP_Officejet_Pro_8620?ip=<ip address>
Is 6566 scan attempt using the correct port?
Have you accidentally closed the port on the scanner (not sure whether
that's possible, but ...)
I use "scan to network" from the printer, but that may not be possible
on yours. Just open a samba port and the scanner saves the file there.
But that isn't foolproof either - when I changed scanner (from Dell to
HP) one user stopped working ... ??
