Hi list! I am attempting to set up my scanner to work over the network.
the device is a HP5510 Multifunction Printer, I can print over the network without any problems and can scan when it is attached directly to my pc. when the scanner is installed on the server I can ssh into the server and see the scanner: root@eldric:~# scanimage -L device `hpoj:mlc:usb:officejet_5500_series' is a hp officejet 5500 series multi-function peripheral when I try same from client i get: zeus:/home/ben# scanimage -L No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different, check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages). my server ip is: 192.168.42.1 my ip is 192.168.42.8 in saned.conf on the server i have: + 192.168.42.8 192.168.42.1 in net.conf on server and local i have: 192.168.42.8 192.168.42.1 in inetd.conf on the server i have: sane stream tcp nowait saned.saned /usr/local/sbin/saned saned as tcpd isn't running. in /etc/services.conf on server & local I have: sane 6566/tcp saned # SANE network scanner daemon in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf I have: # The HP OfficeJet backend is not part of the SANE distribution # but is provided by the hpoj Debian package hpoj telnet from client (or server) to port server 6566 gives: zeus:/home/ben# telnet eldric 6566 Trying 192.168.42.1... Connected to eldric.GTFNET. Escape character is '^]'. Connection closed by foreign host. if i tethereal my interfaces and type scanimage -L from my local machine i get: zeus:/home/ben# tethereal -i eth1 Capturing on eth1 0.000000 192.168.42.8 -> 192.168.42.1 TCP 32867 > sane [SYN] Seq=0 Ack=0 Win=5840 Len=0 MSS=1460 WS=0 0.004592 192.168.42.1 -> 192.168.42.8 TCP sane > 32867 [SYN, ACK] Seq=0 Ack=1 Win=5840 Len=0 MSS=1460 WS=0 0.004636 192.168.42.8 -> 192.168.42.1 TCP 32867 > sane [ACK] Seq=1 Ack=1 Win=5840 Len=0 0.006762 192.168.42.8 -> 192.168.42.1 TCP 32867 > sane [PSH, ACK] Seq=1 Ack=1 Win=5840 Len=12 0.008373 192.168.42.1 -> 192.168.42.8 TCP sane > 32867 [ACK] Seq=1 Ack=13 Win=5840 Len=0 0.010743 192.168.42.1 -> 192.168.42.8 TCP sane > 32867 [RST, ACK] Seq=1 Ack=13 Win=5840 Len=0 So the machines seem to be talking.. Have I missed something basic? Hope someone can help! Ben
