Hello, I have RedHat 8.0 installed, when I run scanimage I get the following result:
[root@shodan sane.d]# scanimage -d hp:/dev/usb/scanner0 scanimage: open of device hp:/dev/usb/scanner0 failed: Invalid argument I have compiled and installed sane-backends-1.0.12 and used the sane-1.0.9.hp.1.01 source. The scanner is detected at /dev/usb/scanner0: [root@shodan sane.d]# sane-find-scanner # Note that sane-find-scanner will find any scanner that is connected # to a SCSI bus and some scanners that are connected to the Universal # Serial Bus (USB) depending on your OS. It will even find scanners # that are not supported at all by SANE. It won't find a scanner that # is connected to a parallel or proprietary port. # If your scanner uses SCSI, you must have a driver for your SCSI # adapter and support for SCSI Generic (sg) in your Operating System # in order for the scanner to be used with SANE.
