Hi James, glad it worked! Hi all, on Ubuntu 18.04, with a multifunction HP printer/scanner I could only run the scanner as root; it was not my system and the relevant files were already /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane, don't know if they were there by default or if the owner of the system put them in place. Anyhow, I applied my workaround in post #73 and 74, changing file names and vendor ID/product ID according to the HP driver, and the scanner can now be run as a user. Hope this can be of help to anyone struggling with HP devices.
