I installed Manjaro 15.09 Xfce 4 days ago and I am down to my last issue to get working, I hope. I set up my HP Deskjet 1055 all in one, printing works fine and the documentation said it uses xSane to perform scans. I installed xSane and when I open it I get a message box no device available. Then I checked further and said no GUI scanning is supported by HP only command line scanning. I can't stand using the terminal. I checked xSane.org not any help. I didn't see a listing for the HP Deskjet 1055. How do I get this to work in the GUI?

Are you using the HPLIP drivers? I use them with my HP L7680 and scanning has been functional on every distro I've used it with.

Hi...

In addition to what frankbell has said, you can also try using "Simple-Scan," another GUI scanning utility. This should be available in Manjaro's package manager but if not, you can download it from Arch's site here (for 32 bit) or here (for 64 bit.)

Yes. But it won't scan using the GUI.

Did you try my suggestion?

Yes. Actually Manjaro had Simples Scan. Now it says I need drivers. I clicked on install drivers and said "Failed to install drivers." What drivers?

Hi...

What packages are those? You don't need the plug-in from what I see here, if that's what you meant.

I firgured for the hell off it I tried a scan. It works and it works. That means what came up in the terminal is B.S. Thank you very much ardvark71

The terminal is lying like ________ _________. This gives me an other reason to hate using the terminal.

Interesting. This is the second time I've suggested running "hp-doctor" and the other commands and it's worked, even though, if I remember correctly, it didn't report anything out of order. But, hey, I'm glad it works, though!

EDIT: You're welcome, BTW.
