Hi Steven, please have a look if you have another hp.conf at /usr/local/etc/sane.d.
You can also try an export SANE_DEBUG_HP=17 and run scanimage -L to see what happens to the hp-backend. Send the generated listing back to me. --Peter Steven Lembark wrote: > > The finderizer locates the scanner (an HP6100C) nicely enough, > scanimage -L doesn't. Same effect as me and su.
