scanning

I am using R.H 9 with a HP PSC 2110xi. I have the printer working. The next step is how do I get the scanner to work?

Any ideas would be helpful

Thanks

Make sure the snaccer is being found by the kernel by typing at the command prompt

dmesg | more

If it isn't build scanner support into the kernel.


If it is, install sane. SANE LINK
