This is fantastic news!!!  I am getting to the point where I can try and
help out.  I have two HP 8250 scanners, and am running Slackware 12.2 on the
systems they are connected to.

I can also try USB snoop, if that will help...although I don't yet have that
system in hand.  That would be a Win XP system, with the HP drivers
installed.
