    Hi,

    I don't know HP scanners, but ...

    PNM is deactivated in dll.conf by default in SANE 1.0.2.

    Did you check if your SCSI driver works and the scanner is found
    (tools/find-scanner and cat /proc/scsi/scsi)? Did you set the right
    permissions for the /dev/sg* device? Maybe you will get some output when you
    set the debug variable SANE_DEBUG_HP (see man sane-hp).

    Ciao, Henning
