[sane-devel] What scanners are the developers using?

[Robert]

I'm using an HP Envy 6032e, Xsane and Ubuntu 22.04.2, cheap as chips. I 
needed to load ipp-usb to make it work initially. Now works as 
printer/scanner over LAN wirelessly. I don't have an ADF on this model 
but the Envy Pro 6455 does.
