i have a HP PSC 1315 and that works fine (after doing quite some research) in ubuntu-linux with hplip & hpijs (not hpoj) installed scanning works after adding the following line to /etc/sane.d/dll.conf : hpaio and afaik with these devices you can also only scan if you have not printed before and visa versa, otherwise you need to turn the printer/scanner/copier off and on first HTH
