I cannot use the scanner on my hp 6110 combination FACS, printer, scanner, copier. (The printer is fine, the copier is stand alone, and I don't use the FACS.) SANE produces the message "no device available". The help and documentation implies that the "backend" may not be installed. I cannot find the mentioned module sane-dll.
Check in /etc/sane.d. Edit it and uncomment the hpoj statement
I understand the idea that a "backend" is required, but I have no idea how to test/provide for same.
After you have uncommented hpoj in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf, run as root ptal-init setup.
I checked the hpoj web site but cannot determine which driver I ought to use,
ptal, which is part of the hpofficejet package. Make sure it starts when you boot with the Run Level Editor. -- Joe Morris New Tribes Mission Email Address: Joe_Morris@ntm.org Registered Linux user 231871
