All these commands were run consecutively, although the timing between them varied between 10 and 60 seconds. I tried this plugged directly into the USB port of my computer (IBM Thinkpad 600E) and it didn't seem to make a difference relative to plugging it into the USB hub.

The hp-option.c assertion failure is in the hp backend I assume. Is anybody using the hp backend any more or is this hardware old enough that this backend has been abandoned? It seems incredibly buggy based on this report and the other reports here on similar models. I don't have a lot of time but I can program in C if I knew where to start on something like this. If I can't get this working I'll have to get a new scanner. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
