There is a "scanner how-to" or something like that.

The problem is that the HP3200C isn't a HP product, it's a cheap scanner 
made in the far-east with a HP logo on it and, at least at the last time 
  that I researched how to set up one of these scanners in Linux (about 
six months ago... I have one 3200C too) it wasn't possible. If you 
really need a scanner under linux you should look for one of these SCSI 
models, not the cheap parallels...
