Hi all,

I bought this HP 2175 all in one printer/scanner/copier (USB) and cups works great for printer function, but I seem to be having some difficulty in getting the scanner function working. Anyone got one of these to work ... sane (xsane) just keeps telling me to load the printer drivers, which is done. I just don't see what to do to enable the scanner function. :wall:

Not completely the same, but I wrote about my experiences with a 1215 scanner/printer combo here:

This may give you some pointers...

Ok,...well I found another menu under manual configuration (printerdrake) and it eventually came right out and asked me if i had a HP combo printer so I just followed the yellow brick road and "TADA"...it all works fine now . Thanks for your reply...
