Got this to work on Karmic for an HP Officejet 5510. sudo sane-find-scanner
returned:
found USB scanner (vendor=0x03f0 [hp], product=0x3a11 [officejet 5500 series])
at libusb:001:003
I added an line similar to the one already in
/lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules as mine wasn't listed:
ATTRS{idVendor}=="03f0", ATTRS{idProduct}=="3a11", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes"
I added the following line to the new file /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libsane.rules:
SYSFS{idVendor}=="03f0", SYSFS{idProduct}=="3a11", MODE="664", GROUP="scanner"
I created the group "scanner" and added my self to it:
sudo groupadd scanner
sudo usermod -a -G scanner dave
I also added the user "saned" to the scanners group so that I can access the
scanner from another system using the sane daemon and xsane:
sudo usermod -a -G scanner saned
After a reboot, things seem to be working locally and with a different
system. I'm not sure how necessary adding the line to
/lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules was.
