I am trying to set up my HP LaserJet 3300mfp multifunction device to scan on Fedora Core 3. I have the printing function all set up and working with ptal and cups, and I am now trying to set up scanning with hpoj and sane following the instructions in /usr/share/doc/hpoj-0.91/. It's a USB connection.

When "scanimage --list-devices" said that no scanners were found, I started to follow the "scanning details and troubleshooting" instructions. According to those instructions, I need libsane-hpoj.so.1 in /usr/lib/sane, but I can't find that library. I see /usr/lib/libhpojip.so.0 in the hpoj package, so I tried a symlink from there to /usr/lib/sane, but that didn't work.

Can anyone give me any suggestions on how to proceed? I had the scan function of this device working under Red Hat 9 a while ago so I know it works, but sadly I have no memory or notes on how I did that.

Thanks,
Jan

Sigh. I just discovered that libsane-hpoj is a separate package in FC3. I installed it and "scanimage --list-devices" now finds the scanner.
