It is installed. The curious situation is that I am able to use the OfficeJet while signed on as "root" but not as my local user. There must be some setting that I am missing which allows the OfficeJet to be used by others on the machine when they sign on as there normal user. > > -- > fedora-list mailing list > fedora-list@redhat.com > To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list > Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

It seems that the issue is between "root" and my local user. If I sign on under "root", the HP Device application has no problem finding my OfficeJet. Nor does it have any problems with the scan function. If I am signed on as my local user, the system is unable to communicate with the printer. I did find that while going through the set up process for the printer under my local sign in, that it asked for my password. After typing it in several times, I hit the cancel button. There may be a disconnect where by the application is unable to recognize my local sign on password. > > -- > fedora-list mailing list > fedora-list@redhat.com > To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list > Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

Prior to attempting to us my OfficeJet for scanning, I installed it as a printer using the System/Administration/Printing setup application. Through this process, Fedora 9 recognized my printer. Following the information, I checked to see that hplip was installed and found that it was. I included the graphical front end. After installing the graphical front end, the installation asked if I wish to run the program. I answered yes and it responded saying that it was unable to find any devices the subsequently crashed. > > -- > fedora-list mailing list > fedora-list@redhat.com > To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list > Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

SANE Support in Fedora 9 for HP
I have a very old HP OfficeJet 630 parallel port multifunction printer/scanner/fax machine. Prior to Fedora 9, I had no problems with xsane/sane recognizing the scanner function. After installing Fedora 9 and going to the Software Add to include the HP support for sane, xsane still can not find my device. I have installed it as a printer without any issues. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
