[sane-devel] HPG85 scan over jetdirect printserver 500X

[Michael Schoelzel]

Hi everybody,

do need some help as I got stuck and don't find a workaround, even
though following the instruction on hpoj.sourceforge.net.

Using Suse 9.0, I have set up a HP500X printserver to share resources
between a XP and linux box.

Printing (cups) works fine, no concern.

Scanning doesn't work at all. Scanner got recognised and set up using
ptal-init setup. But when trying to scan, sane, scanimage, or
other application do not find the scanner.

I have run scanimage in a debug mode and got following output messages:
=========

beuelerkiste:/usr/local/bin # export SANE_DEBUG_DLL=128
beuelerkiste:/usr/local/bin # export PTAL_DEBUG=2
