[sane-devel] Re:Support for HP 7490?

[Peter Kirchgessner]

Hi,

the HP 7xxx series is not supported by the hp-backend. So modifying 
hp.conf does not work. Please have a look at the sane-devel mailing list 
archives at www.mostang.com/sane. Currently there is some development to 
support a 7400 by the Avision (??) backend.
