Indeed, that was the problem. > scanimage hp:/dev/scanner can't work. First, the option for setting > the device is -d. Actually it does work.

I changed my iptables-stuff, and now I can scan! Wow, Thanks! Now the only problem that's left, is the fact that xsane doesn't recognize my scanner on the client side. If i run saned on the server, scanimage -L finds no scanners, if I run saned -d it does! But as I can scan from the command line with scanimage, I'm a happy man for now. Thenks again!
