Description: I have an HP ScanJet 3300C USB scanner
that works under Mandrake 9.x, at least via the CLI.
I use the following two aliases:
alias scan='scanimage -d niash:/dev/usb/scanner0 --format tiff > scan.tif'
alias xscan='xsane niash:/dev/usb/scanner0 &'
I can't get xsane to work without providing the hint,
but it is probably possible.

BTW, the drivers from HP that are marked Win2K
are totally worthless, even applying the various
patches on the 'net.
Keywords: USB scanner HP sane xsane Mandrake

As root run:
