-Introduction
-
-This document will hopefully provide enough info on how to get SANE
-working with a Hewlett Packard USB capable scanner using the USB
-interface.  The majority of HP Scanners support the Scanner Control
-Language (SCL) which is both published by HP and supported by SANE.
-The only HP Scanner that I'm aware of that does not support SCL is the
-4200C.  All other HP scanners with USB interfaces should work (4100C,
-5200C, 6200C).  Of course as HP releases new scanners this information
-may change.
-
-
-Requirements
-
-In order to get this running you'll need USB support in your kernel in
-addition to USB HP Scanner support.  Please refer to README.hp_scanner
-for issues pertaining to Linux USB and USB HP Scanner support.
-
-An installed version of SANE which is available from
-http://www.mostang.com/sane/.  Testing has been performed using
-version SANE-1.0.1.  For instructions on building and installing SANE,
-refer to the various README files within the distribution.
-
-
-Ok, so what do I do?
-
-NOTE: $INSTALL_DIR is the location where SANE was installed.  It may
-be /usr/local, /usr, /opt or somewhere else.  If you don't know, ask
-your system administrator.
-
-1) Make sure that you have the libsane-hp.* libraries under the
-$INSTALL_DIR/lib/sane/ directory.
-
-2) Under the directory $INSTALL_DIR/etc/sane.d/ edit the following
-files: dll.conf, hp.conf.
-
-  dll.conf:  Make sure that the 'hp' entry is present and uncommented.
-
-  hp.conf: This should contain two lines:
-
-    option connect-device
-    /dev/usbscanner
-
-3) You should now be able to use SANE (xscanimage or scanimage).
-
-Don't forget to read any relevant man pages regarding the usage of
-SANE.  If you have other entries uncommented in dll.conf, you my have
-to specify the device to (x)scanimage.  The xscanimage (1) man page
-has info on how to get 'The Gimp' to work with xscanimage.  Note that
-Gimp support must be compiled into SANE for it work.  If you are
-dealing with a RedHat system, you'll also need to install the
-gimp-devel rpm package.
-
-NOTE: Most of the time xscanimage will run without incident, then on
-the next invocation it'll core dump at different locations.  I don't
-know why yet and I don't have a work around either other than to try
-again.  But once you get it started, it'll scan without any problems
-(or at least it does for me).
