Hello List,
A month or so ago I initiated a discussion here about accessing my
networked HP OfficeJet Pro L7500. I could print but not scan. Now I have
managed to do the scanning just fine, I'm posting this here hoping that
other people can take advantage of it. It is kind of like a mini how-to

Yes this works fine, thanks for the hint!
So in the end the solution for me was to change the xsane icon on the
desktop to include that extra parameter, and now can scan fine. Luckily
I have only three workstations total!

Dear Till,
Thank you for your answer.
Unfortunately it doesn't work like that for me. I have installed the
printer in CUPS, the uri is hp:/net/Officejet_Pro_L7500?ip=192.168.2.9
Printing works, so the above setting/uri is for sure correct.
However scanimage -L doesn't list any scanners.
Wouter.
Hello,
A little digging got me a small step further: Mandriva comes with a
backend for hpaio: libsane-hpaio it's called. Running scanimage in debug
mode I see the hpaio backend being registered, but there is no
configuration file or anything included in the rpm package. And
scanimage -L still does
first to scan using xsane, enter the following in a shell after
substituting your model and ip addr:
xsane hpaio:/net/Officejet_J6400_series?ip=192.168.2.103
you should now be able to scan with the xsane gui. i had a test box
with xsane installed and it worked.
second, the information to do thi
Try running "scanimage -L" as root. If it finds the scanner, there is a
permission problem.

Allan,
The scanning part (hpaio) is working fine - there is no problem on that
side.
The problem is on the SANE side: how to install this command within SANE
so I can access this scanner through xsane and saned. This is why I'm
asking here again.
Maybe I have to add something in the /etc/sane.d
To be able to access your scanner without supplying the scanner URI
(hpaio:/...) and so also to be able to access it with saned and xsane,
you need to set up a CUPS queue for the printing part of your device
(with CUPS URI hp:/net/Officejet_J6400_series?ip=192.168.2.103). Then
you can do the sc
Has anyone an idea on this issue?

i think i see what he is asking for and the answer may not be known here.
as we know, the command i gave earlier uses the sane supplied command
line front end. he substituted his model and ip address for mine and
it works. however, the xsane front end does not know about the
scanner. kooka, whi
if the scanner can be reached over the network via hpaio's internal
networking capability, you dont need saned. You just need to tell the
hpaio backend on each machine where the scanner is located. Perhaps
hpaio has a config file for this, look in /etc/sane.d. But the real
experts on that are not o
maybe ask the guys that make the hpaio backend? it is part of the hplip project.

Hi all,
I am the happy owner of an HP Officejet Pro L7560 (an all-in-one
device).
Until recently I had this connected to my server through USB, and
printing and scanning all worked fine. Of course using sane on the
server to access the scanner from the workstations.
Now I have a new office, a
you need to have hplip installed. with hplip you can then use hpaio
to access the scanner across the network. for example:
scanimage -x 215.9 -y 297 -d
hpaio:/net/Officejet_J6400_series?ip=192.168.2.103 -pv --mode gray >
