Try installing the 'hplip' and 'hplip-gui' packages, then run the

I recently set up an HP combination scanner/printer, and while CUPS
picked up the printer the second I plugged it in, the scanner needed
that to work.
HTH.

T.C:
I had a similar issue in which the printer was picked up by CUPS and I
can print without problem, but I am not able to scan. I do know that I
had an old scanner working without problem.
I saw this email and went "worth a shot". Yum installed your suggestion,
ran hp-setup, and it can't see any printer. If I go under
admin->printer, it shows there and things are still working.
Testing on my F14 before migrating to F16. Maybe its an EOL issue?
I wanted to ask if I am missing anything obvious before I go down that
path (as it involves walking up and down stairs as the F16 is on one
floor and the printer on another).
Its an HP 7510 connected wireless into my Linksys router as DHCP. My F14
and XP box are static IPs connected into same router. Initial setup done
on XP and everything working there. Nothing worked on F14 until I
installed system-config-printer cups hpijs, and then printing worked
after a simple set-up. Scanning did not.
If it makes any difference, the Linksys is wired into the Verizon router
which is the connect to outside world ... so all connectivity is under
my control and I don't have to muck with Verizon's hardware/software.
Another reason to avoid doing F16 is that it is a static IP connected
into a different router which is attached to a WAP which is wireless
into the main router which the printer, XP, and FC14. Just one more
"extra thing" that I'd rather tackle once the simplier setup is working.
When I run hp-setup, it doesn't see any printer/device no matter which
of the four options I pick
Thanks in advance,
Paul
Have you run the command from the cli, and has it spit anything interesting
back?

Terry:
Thanks for reply. I fired off the command in a terminal, it put up a
gui, and I worked from there. All the output in the terminal was jsut
confirmation that it could find anything.
I don't see anything for man hp-setup. I do get some info with hp-setup
--help, so when I run with '-i', give a '1' for
Network/Ethernet/WIreless, it comes back with the same info "error: no
device selected/specified or that supports this functionality".
Your email came in during the middle of a yum update to my F16 box so I
can try it (and a few other tests on things that needed fixing).
Hopefully I get some new information.
For what it is worth, this is the first time I have set up a printer on
Linux and the first time I've setup a wireless-to-LAN, so there is a bit
of blind guiding the blind on my end
