Hello,

I have been trying to get my HP 2200C working.  I cannot get sane to recognize its existance.
 I'm currently using a stock redhat 7.2 installation (with the RPMS of sane and sane-backends
1.0.8 that come with ximian).

The scanner does show up in /proc/bus/usb/devices.  I'm not sure whether I should be
using /dev/usbscanner0 or /dev/usb/scanner0 in /etc/sane.d/plustek.conf, but I get the
same response with both, which is  that it fails to find the scanner.  The following
is a subset of the output of "strace scanimage -L":

open ("/etc/sane.d/plustek.conf", O_RDONLY) = 3
...
close (3)
open ("/dev/pt_drv", O_RDONLY) = -1
...
open ("/dev/usb/scanner0", O_RDWR) = 3
ioctl (3, 0x80045220, 0xbfffd148) = -1 ENOTTY (Inappropriate ioctl for device)
ioctl (3, 0x800475a0, 0xbfffd148) = -1 ENOTTY (Inappropriate ioctl for device)
ioctl (3, 0x80045521, 0xbfffd144) = -1 ENOTTY (Inappropriate ioctl for device)
ioctl (3, 0x800475a1, 0xbfffd144) = -1 ENOTTY (Inappropriate ioctl for device)
close(3)
...

It then proceeds to query the other drivers, and quits with a message that no scanners
were found.

Any help or advice you can give would be appreciated.

Sincerely,
Mike George
