One other thing to check.

With the HP4620 on the network run

scanimage -L

the important thing is that this command uses Bonjour (which use mDNS, or 
Multicast Domain
Name System)  to discover devices on the network.

If, and I tested this on my HP 8710, if Bonjour is disabled in the printer's 
web interface
then it will not be detected as a scanner.

This also answers my own question about how the URI is determined at least in 
one case

If I have Bonjour enabled on my printer I get 2 devices.

device `hpaio:/net/HP_OfficeJet_Pro_8710?hostname=hp' is a Hewlett-Packard
HP_OfficeJet_Pro_8710 all-in-one
device `hpaio:/net/hp_officejet_pro_8710?ip=192.168.1.166&queue=false' is a
Hewlett-Packard hp_officejet_pro_8710 all-in-one

If I disable Bonjour I only get 1 device

device `hpaio:/net/HP_OfficeJet_Pro_8710?hostname=hp' is a Hewlett-Packard
HP_OfficeJet_Pro_8710 all-in-one

I'm guessing that the single entry is as a result of installing the 
printer/fax/scanner
under hplip.  But I've not yet determined where that entry comes from.
