[opensuse] HPLIP not finding scanner

6 Feb 2010

      openSUSE 11.2 i586

When running hp-probe I get the following:

hp-probe

error: Unable to locate models.dat file

********************************

How do I fix the error of not being able to "locate models.dat file"

and the warning of "No devices found on the 'usb' bus" when I can print
just fine to this device?

This is part of dmesg after unplugging and plugging the MFP device:
