Hello all,
I've tried the USB interface on my HP scanner with 2
different
operating systems, and am thinking the problems I've had are
with the USB
aspect of the interface, so I'm trying with parallel. I had
the parallel
version going some time ago, but it's been long enough that
I've forgotten
exactly what I had to do to make it work.
I'm using an HP 5200 on an eMachines 433 mhz computer with
160 MB
of ram. I have the ppscsi driver installed, but I'm still
not getting any
scanning action. It says there's no scanner devices found.
Is there
something I should be passing to the --devicename=...
option? I tried
google and the man pages, but they don't seem to be telling
me anything
useful. I thought perhaps hp:/dev/scanner would work since
it showed up
as an example, but it didn't. My original thought was that
perhaps I
should use /dev/lp0 since I have it plugged into the
parallel port I'd
been using for my printer, but that doesn't work. So which
device name
should I be using if any, and/or where should I go to find
that info?
Thanks,
Terrence
