[SOLVED] HP CM 2320 fxi scanner and sane

thecarpy · 03-06-2011, 05:10 AM

I have a problem here where sane no longer detects my scanner.

Code:

lsusb

reports
Bus 007 Device 002: ID 03f0:5b17 Hewlett-Packard

Code:

sane-find-scanner

reports:

found USB scanner (vendor=0x03f0 [Hewlett-Packard], product=0x5b17 [HP Color LaserJet CM2320fxi MFP]) at libusb:007:002

Code:

scanimage -L

reports

No scanners were identified.

xsane reports no devices detected (I have it in French, "Aucun périférique disponible")

I get the same when I launch xsane as root, so I doubt it is a usb-rules issue.

It used to work; I checked /proc/bus/usb, but that is empty.

Any ideas?

So sane does not find my scanner with root privs. Besides, scanning as user root is not right.

I fixed it by installing all the hplib packages, apparently, when updating ubuntu, some packages were not upgraded, just purely removed.
