Hi all,

I tried to install myscanjet 5300C from HP under Yast. Unfortunately this USB-scanner is not in the list. Is there an other possibility to get this thing working?

Greetings,

Rene.

As I wrote in my other mail, Scanjet 5300C is normally supported by Sane even if it is maybe not straightforward.

I got it to work though it's been a long time ago and I don't remember just what I had to do. But one essential piece of information is that the scanner is a relabelled UMAX, so the driver you need goes under that name. And it does exist. Paul Abrahams
