Xsane and the hp-scan and hp- info also reported extremely unhelpful messages similar to "I/O error=9" It turns out the issue is that the default user is not added to the scanner or lp (and possibly other) user groups. I propose that either the error message be clarified to something that indicates the user doesn't have permissions, or better, the user account be granted access to lp and scanner on a default install, since they're already granted access to admin.
