 |
|
hi
I have been following the instructions on sane and hpoj homepage for installation. after running sane-find-scanner I get:
| Code: |
# No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that
# you have loaded a SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.
found USB scanner (vendor=0x03f0, product=0x2b11 [PSC 2170 Series]) at libusb:002:002
# Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by
# SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.
# Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports can't be
# detected by this program.
|
so far so good... but when running scanimage -L the scanner is not found:
| Code: |
No scanners were identified.....
|
I have created /etc/sane.d/hpoj.conf :
| Code: |
/dev/usb
# USB-scanners supported by the hp-backend
# HP OfficeJet PSC 2175
usb 0x03f0 0x2b11
|
and I have also uncommented the hpoj line in dll.conf, so I was browsing the forums here but could not find a solution.... maybe anyobdy can help?
thanks

| Do you dual boot? I have the 2110 and found that I have to turn the printer off and back on after booting into Linux to get sane to recognize it correctly. |

Since it was detected, I figured you had support in the kernel. Somebody else may know more. The only other things I can think to try is running ptal-init setup again and ptal-init restart. |

I got a HP PSC-2410 working (with hpoj and hpijs) after I did as follows:
1) 'emerge mtools'
2) 'ptal-init setup' gave this output
| Quote: | Probe for USB-connected devices ([y]/n)? y
Probing "/dev/usb/lp0"...
Found "psc 2400 series"
with serial number "xxxxx".
This device will be set up as "mlc:usb:psc_2400_series".
Press <Enter> alone to continue or <Ctrl-D> to skip this device, or
enter a different desired name suffix (without the "mlc:usb:" prefix)
here --->
Lots of output here: yadayadayada
Done updating device configuration files stored under /etc/ptal.
If you make manual changes to those files, then be sure to run
"/usr/sbin/ptal-init start" so they will take effect.
|
Note the device name: in my case "mlc:usb:psc_2400_series"
Then I was able to test the device as
4) scanimage -d hpoj:mlc:usb:psc_2400_series --test
5) And use the scanner
5.1) scanimage -d hpoj:mlc:usb:psc_2400_series > image1.pnm
5.2) xsane hpoj:mlc:usb:psc_2400_series
Hope this helps. |
