It is based on a driver for Linux that offers an Indian company: http://www.elcot.in/linuxdrivers_download.php
******* A user issue a .deb package in: http://www.vivaolinux.com.br/dica/Instalando-o-scanner-HP2400c-no-Debian-Linux But I could not install because it tries to overwrite the library /usr/lib/sane/libsane-hp.la ******* The information was obtained from the following website, which is a tutorial in Portuguese: http://www.biglinux.com.br/forum/viewtopic.php?p=38229&sid=af5583e62200f2c8fb64830ac2924ad1 This driver is for HP Scanjet 2400 but it works well with the HP ScanJet G2410 as they apparently have same chipset. 1. Download the driver on the link below: http://www.elcot.in/HP%20Scanjet%202400.zip 2. Open the terminal, go to the directory where the file save and unzip with the command below: $unzip HP\ Scanjet\ 2400.zip 3. Now change to the HP Scanjet 2400 directory, which was decompressed, using the command: $cd HP \ Scanjet \ 2,400 / 4. Inside this directory are two files. One file called 2400rv.tar.gz and a text document called "hp 2400 scanner procedure-installation.doc, providing instructions to install the driver, but we do not use it. We will decompress the file 2400rv.tar.gz using the command below: $tar xzf 2400rv.tar.gz 5. go to in the 2400rv directory, which was uncompressed, using the command below: $cd 2400rv 6. In this directory there are 5 more files. We will use the files hp2400.tgz and libsane.tgz. The file hp2400.tgz have the drivers of the scanner while the file libsane.tgz contains libraries of modified sane to identify the new scanner. 7.First will decompress the file hp2400.tgz directly to the directory /usr/lib/sane using command below: $sudo tar xzf hp2400.tgz -C / 8.Now will decompress the file to the libsane /usr/lib, using the command below: $sudo tar xzf libsane.tgz -C / 9.Now go to edit the file that is dll.conf in the directory /etc/sane.d/ with the following command: $sudo kedit /etc/sane.d/dll.conf 10. Will open a text file. We will then include hp2400 after hp5400 line and then save the file and and then we close it. 11.With the scanner connected and turned on, type the following command in the terminal for the sane identify it: $sane-find-scanner 12.If it is correctly identified, should appear a line like this: found USB scanner (vendor = 0x03f0 [Hewlett-Packard], product = 0x0a01 [hp scanjet scanner], chip = GL646_HP) at libusb: 002:003 13.The information libusb: 002:003 that appears in line identification of the scanner is the file where the scanner has been mapped and probably will be different this example. By default only the root user will be allowed to access the scanner. Then we will change this by giving permission to read and write to the file where the scanner was mapped. In this example the file is libusb /002/003. The files from USB devices are in the directory /dev/bus/usb/. To give permission to all users, type the command: $sudo chmod 666 /dev/bus/usb/002/003 Recalling that the file 002/003 is just one example. The file to be placed here should be equal to that found libusb information on: 14.Now will confirm whether the driver was loaded correctly. To do this simply type the command: $scanimage -L 15.If everything well occur, you will see a line like this: device `hp2400: libusb: 002:003 'is a Hewlett-Packard hp2400 flatbed scanner His escanner is finally installed and ready to be used. Just then open the xsane or kooka. Greetings from Venezuela. (This was translated using google) = -- Powered by Outblaze
