So on further research I found this from vuescan If you're using a newer Linux distribution that's LSB compliant, edit "/etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules", find the line that begins with "libusb device access" and change 0644 to 0666. (It might be in "/ lib/udev/rules.d")
I cant find the file specified in either of the specified directories
Bob, It's been a number of years since I tried, but we had several HP5500C scanners with auto-document feeders for scanning discovery, etc... At that time, the 'sane' scanner drivers were the only thing Linux would talk to, so that was one reason we left a couple of secretarial machines on windoze. Since then we have gone with a Sharp AR_M355N that does scan-to-pdf from the document feeder and I just have it scan-to-ftp over the network to our server and it works without a hitch. (we have put several thousand-page medical charts together on it and it does just fine. (the 50-sheet feeder limit makes it a bit of a chore...) Hopefully the new HP drivers will provide an interface, but unless they have added new capability to do so, then you may find yourself in the same boat on the scanner side of the multi-function box. -- David C.
