I've been through yast2 to try to install this scanner However, I don't think I've selected the correct USB device. Can anyone help with determining the correct usb hub and removing my erroneous scanner definition?
YAST2 reports the following in Hardware info
+usb +USB UHCI Root Hub

Hello, I don't know how it works with Yast2 I suppose that there is a Sane driver available for the HP Scanjet 4300C and that Sane is installed. I can read that the Usb driver are normally installed. Scanjet 4300C does seem to be fully supported and there is no driver furnished by Sane but somebody managed to have it work Look at: http://home.kabelfoon.nl/~bertrik/hp3300c/hp3300c.html and the Sane Web page: http://www.buzzard.org.uk/jonathan/scanner-usb.html Did you find the vendor and product number of your scanner with: host:> less /proc/bus/usb/devices My scanner is a HP Scanjet 6200C with vendor number : 03f0 and product number : 0201. I just type: host:> modprobe scanner vendor=0x3f0 product=0x201 and it works. Good luck. I have a Canoscan N450U too with no available drivers made by Sane but somebody made an experimental backend driver and it works with the help of a Bash script.
