usb scanner

Well wit's end is getting closer to describing things. My boss got me a brand spanking new HP 5490c scanner with an autofeeder. Something I actually need for my research. The problem is, it is usb and I cannot get SuSE to work with it at all. When I use yast2 to do a hardware check it sees the usb port and even says there is a 5400 series scanner but that is as far as things go. I have tried every defination for hp scanner and none will work. Help and suggestions gleefully followed and accepted. -- Dr. Roy F.
