the find-scanner-tool is located in the tools-directory of the sane
source tree. It is just started at ./find-scanner and list all devices
where a scanner is found. If you have found that hpinq works with
/dev/sg1, you may try to directly link /dev/scanner to /dev/sg1. If this
does not help you can try
export SANE_DEBUG_HP=128
and run
xscanimage hp > hp.lis 2>&1
and send the hp.lis-file back to me.
