Wish it were that simple in my case.nothing in syslog indicates the

I tied attaching it to my wife win7 only machine and nothing happens.
Like I said...it appears to be did Jim :)
Bad luck. Thinking about it, our scanner is fifteen years old, so if
yours is similar, that's not too bad. Might be worth opening it up to
see if a connector has fallen off.
If I can figure out how to get it open. Plastic shell..seems to be
just press-fit. Guess it doesn't matter...it's dead.
One thing it isn't is fast, as it's USB-powered, and I did look into
getting a quicker one a few years ago. But everyone has all-in-one
printers nowadays, and the remaining scanners are mostly somewhat
specialised and quite expensive.
That's what I noticed today..the all-in-ones are everywhere and the
few scanner-onlys few and far between
There is a reasonably-priced LiDE 120, but it appears it is not yet
supported by SANE, and neither are the cheaper HPs. All the cheaper
ones look to be USB-powered. I'll be a bit more careful with ours...
Yup replacing it might be a problem.
