Hey Daniel,
Can you tell me the what configuration you are trying to accomplish?
Scanning over the network with the Photosmart C5180 does work with HPLIP.
For the scanning to function on each computer you will have to install hplip
on each system because the scanning feature requires that hplip be installed
to function.
The scanning will not function on a system that does not have hplip
installed..

Well, then it tells me that sane is set up correctly in both cases (and
scanimage -L works in both cases locally), but it also tells me that there
has to be something wrong in 1.7.3 with providing scanner sharing using
sane
over the network.
Again: hplip is only supposed to be on the server. Then I start "saned" on
the
server which is supposed to provide access to the locally connected
scanners
(like the C5180) over the network. This is because I don't want to install
hplip on every single computer I want to scan from.
Please give me some hints how to solve this. I guess it's a bug in hplip.
Is
there a way I can debug this so you can fix it in future releases?
Thank you,
Dan
