Firmware for the Officejet 4500 G510g-m ?

Hi, I would need a pro here. I would like to find the firmware to use it to scan with the tray (no hplip).

Do you read german, have they this file?

http://h30492.www3.hp.com/t5/Drucker...bar/td-p/35063

hp no firmware file

The firmware version is probably the: MWM2FN0936CR

where could I retrieve this firmware file please?

Is it this file attached from a board: http://gigapeta.com/dl/2311203ad59dc1 ? How to use it to scan please?

I need a bin from HP that could be placed to /etc/sane.d/snapscan.conf

Code:

#------------------------------ General -----------------------------------



# Change to the fully qualified filename of your firmware file, if

# firmware upload is needed by the scanner

#firmware /usr/share/sane/snapscan/your-firmwarefile.bin

firmware /etc/sane.d/HP-g510.bin

I have a :
Hewlett-Packard Officejet_4500_G510g-m all-in-one

Under installed HPLIP machine, where to find this bin / firmware?

Code:

[ 1972.708148] usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4

[ 1972.841930] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=03f0, idProduct=2d12

[ 1972.841942] usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3

[ 1972.841950] usb 1-1: Product: Officejet 4500 G510g-m

[ 1972.841957] usb 1-1: Manufacturer: HP

[ 1972.842230] usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

[ 1972.913317] usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 4 if 1 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x03F0 pid 0x2D12

[ 1974.254526] usb 1-1: usbfs: interface 1 claimed by usblp while 'usb' sets config #1

How to know what uses LIBUSB as firmware for this :

Code:

sane-find-scanner 



  # sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the

  # result is different from what you expected, first make sure your

  # scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.



  # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that

  # you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.

  # Also you need support for SCSI Generic (sg) in your operating system.

  # If using Linux, try "modprobe sg".



found USB scanner (vendor=0x03f0 [HP], product=0x2d12 [Officejet 4500 G510g-m]) at libusb:001:004

it looks like it could be :

Code:

USB\VID_03F0&PID_2D12&REV_0100&MI_02 <---- Your Driver

USB\VID_03F0&PID_2D12&MI_02



Compatible ID:

USB\CLASS_FF&SUBCLASS_FF&PROT_FF

USB\CLASS_FF&SUBCLASS_FF

USB\CLASS_FF

and then?
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/softwa...1_Basic_14.exe

it gives:
OJ100ML411_Basic_14/drivers/dot4/win2000$ ls
difxapi.dll hppldcoi.dll hpzc3212.dll hpzid412.sys hpzipr12.sys hpzisc12.sys hpzius12.sys hpzs2k12.sys

where to find it and how to install in onto debian for scanimage?

thank you

bump

there is here : tar xvpfz HPIJS.tar.gz
hp-officejet_6500_e709n-hpijs.ppd

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1183108

can I use this ppd to scan wiht sane witthout cups? how`?

This
solution will prevent users from installing HPLIP since HP would not like to make use of their HPLIP, without installing all their mess, as publicized in the package description:
"This package is useful for a minimal footprint headless scanning solution"

HPLIP refuses to provide support, since they simply refer to install HPLIP. I mean, that's not fair since servers needs really "a minimal footprint headless scanning solution" and we do not need HPLIP and other mess.

OK got it to work.

Code:

$ dpkg -l | grep sane

ii  libsane                        1.0.21-9                    API library for scanners

ii  libsane-extras                  1.0.21.2                    API library for scanners -- extra backends

ii  libsane-hpaio                  3.10.6-2+squeeze1            HP SANE backend for multi-function peripherals

ii  sane-utils                      1.0.21-9                    API library for scanners -- utilities

then you add the directory scan and the file scan.py that you take from hplip deb.

so that you have:

Code:

/usr/share/hplip# ls

data  scan  scan.py

Code:

mkdir /etc/hp/

then you simply do create /etc/hp/hplip.conf

Code:

# hplip.conf.  Generated from hplip.conf.in by configure.



[hplip]

then you type to see your newly found scanner

Code:

# scanimage -L

and then you see that udev does not see it. Ok, let's work on udev.

OK. Let's simply change the UDEV to right permissions, into the directory /etc/udev/rules.d#
Simple. Done.

OK. Un/replug the USB of our officejet.

let's try:
Let's try now with a regular user:

Code:

$ scanimage  -L

device `hpaio:/usb/Officejet_4500_G510g-m?serial=XX' is a Hewlett-Packard Officejet_4500_G510g-m all-in-one

Then what you do?
- Say thank you, + reportbug to libsane-hpaio (maybe one day, libsane-hpaio will care about it, and will tell you sthg else : INSTALL HPLIP and KDE and all the mess we advice you )
