Here is a method for sharing a scanner over a network with
sane-backends and inetd:

My prospective printer/scanner (HP c4599) is not listed in the SANE
compatible devices:
http://www.sane-project.org/sane-mfgs.html#Z-HEWLETT-PACKARD
It is listed in HPLIP, but the network feature is apparently not
working (Network I/O):

Can I share the scanner over the network without SANE support since it
has HPLIP support?

I'm going to get the Epson Artisan 700 instead of the HP so I'm
wondering about using media-gfx/iscan instead of HPLIP and how that
will work for network sharing of the scanner.

Epson Artisan 700 printing and scanning with
net-print/gutenprint-5.2.3 from the alexxy overlay and media-gfx/iscan
from portage renamed to 2.16.1.
