I have no idea what Clarkconnect is but I hope it doesn't matter :-)

Ok, so it was detected by the kernel scanner driver.

Before trying saned, try if it's running locally without saned. E.g.
is it detected by scanimage -L? Does scanning with "scanimage >image.pnm" work?

Well, you can't start saned twice. If you run it in debug mode (-d)
you must disable it in /etc/inetd.conf and restart inetd.

There is no sign of saned. Looks like it wasn't even started.

Ok, that's ohci and EHCI running USB 2.0. But that shouldn't matter.

Looks ok.

If it's a problem with Windows/XSane I can't help. But most probably
it isn't.

Please just respond to that.

When local scanning works, set up saned, check inetd.conf and
saned.conf.

Check on the server if saned runs correctly, e.g. by adding
"localhost" t o net.conf and running scanimage -L. It should show the
server not only directly (hp:/dev/usb/scanner) but also "over the net"
(net:localhost:hp:/dev/usb/scanner0). Please show us this output.

When this works, try again from the Windows server. If XSane32 still
fails, I guess it's a problem on the Windows side.
