[sane-devel] HP ScanJet 6100C Configuration

[Peter Kirchgessner]

Hi Frank,

try the hp.conf with

scsi HP
/dev/sg0

If this does not work, you may have a second hp.conf at 
/etc/sane.d/hp.conf. Try that one with the same content.
If it still does not work, do as root a

chmod 666 /dev/sg0

and try it again.

Sincerely

Peter
