A friend told me that he uses a twain driver on his Windows system to
get to his network attached HP printer/scanner.  Blast from the past; I
have not touched twain for 15 years at least...

So what is the equivalent way to do this from Fedora 28?
Have you installed hplip?

It was installed, and I can print to the printer.  I did some googling and found that I needed hplib-gui and xsane.

Maybe only xsane is needed.

I got some things working, but the adf function is only saving the 1st page of the stack.  I can do multipage by scanning one page at a time into the multipage project which will then save all the pages into one pdf.  This is too painful;; what is the adf for?

So now have to get xsane to actually pay attention to the adf sending multiple pages.  One thing might be that it is saying the paper length is 8.5x14 when I am scanning 8.5x11?  But I can't find where to config this.
