Using HPLIP on a machine "A" and then access a scanner from a machine "B" via saned running on "A" and using the net meta-backend on "B" works well for me using various versions of HPLIP and using a USB all in one device (HP LaserJet 1220) and a network all in one device (Officejet 7210) in both directions i.e. accessing from "A" to "B" and vice versa (with HPLIP running and disabled on the current "client" machine). In short: For me everything worked and works. Perhaps you have some kind of restrictive firewall settings? Clients contact saned via the sane-port (TCP port 6566) but scanning data is transferred via an additional random port (like ftp but with a random data port), see "man saned". I.e. only TCP port 6566 is not sufficient. Make sure no port is blocked by a firewall. When port 6566 doesn't work, "scanimage -L" would not show the remote scanner. When only port 6566 works, "scanimage -L" would show the remote scanner but real scanning e.g. a test via "scanimage -d <sane-device> -T" would not work.
