[sane-devel] HP 5590 Scanner

[Random Quip Generator]

Mike -- Have been using the HP ScanJet 5590 USB scanner using the
packaged version of sane and gscan2pdf in 64-bit Ubuntu in 12.04, 12.10,
and 13.04 without issue. 'Works fine here'...

With the scanner plugged in and powered up, what do 'lsusb | grep -i
scanner' and 'sane-find-scanner' give you?
