Subject: [gentoo-user]  HP ScanJet 7670
Date: Wed, 21 Oct 2009 16:13:09 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <loom.20091021T180725-478@post.gmane.org> (raw)

Hello,

I've never set up a scanner on gentoo (or any other 
linux before).

So here's what I've done. Looking at the sane 
website I see support for these models:

http://www.sane-project.org/man/sane-hp5590.5.html

ScanJet 7650 is listed as basic support.

I have a HP Scanjet 7670, so it should work?


lsusb lists the devices like this:

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002


dmesg shows nothing.

sane-find-scanner reveals this:

  sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. 
  If the result is different from what you expected, first 
  make sure your scanner is powered up and properly 
  connected to your computer.

   No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, 
make sure that
   you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.

found USB scanner (vendor=0x0403 [FTDI], 
product=0x6001 [UC232R]) 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.

   Not checking for parallel port scanners.


so am I out of luck? I have this installed:

media-gfx/sane-backends-1.0.19-r2 USE="ipv6 usb 
v4l -doc -gphoto2" 


replugging the usb cable does not make the device appear on 
the usb bus?


any ideas?


James
