Weird, I don't see the scanner in the output.

Using google, I was able to find part of the sane-project.org
pages. The HP4370 is possibly supported by the hp3900 backend
(marked as 'Untested. Please report if it works.')

hp3900 backend page:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/hp3900-series/

The hp3900 page indicates that the scanner uses a RTS8822 chipset.

There is also another backend for this chipset: hp_rts88xx
http://hp44x0backend.sourceforge.net/

For both backends you will need to be able to compile the sane-backends
sources from scratch. There is no guarantee that it will eventually
work.
