I am using an HP OfficeJet 7210 over an Ethernet connection with no difficulties.

Use Insert -> Picture -> Scan -> Request. That should bring up the HP Director scanning utility.



OK thanks, it works, but only in graphic mode; what I need is to import a text by OCR!
I need something like "Text -> Scan -> Request.

1. Forget about initiating it from inside OOo. This isn't because the engineers are incompetent or because of a design oversight, but rather the OCR program has to produce a compatible file format for OOo to import. These things are generally designed to output in Word doc format and to interface with Word directly.

2. I tried to use Director and tell it to scan to ocr with a file as destination, but not much happened. There may be a problem with HPs software or (more likely) I just don't know what I'm doing.
