FWIW, that is why I said "printer" in that when he runs hp-tool box it shows that no printers are defined. So, I'm attempting to get that rectified first. > If the OP runs hp-setup, selects 'Network' then 'Advanced' and 'Manual Discovery' and > enters the IP address of the printer, it will be discovered, and the URI will be shown, > something like: > > Model Host Name Device URI > > HP Laserjet 3055 192.168.1.12 hp:/net/HP_Laserjet_3055?ip=192.168.1.12 > > Write down the URI.

Well, no need (as far as I've ever experienced) to write down the URI. The HP 4620 is an "All in One" device and running the hp-setup will set up both the Printer and the Fax. After that, I have found, all I need do is either run xsane from hp-tool or manually and it will pickup the URI. That is, no need whatsoever to use a script. I don't know, and haven't researched, how xsane finds the URI. I've never used the hp-scan command. I'm quite happy with the GUI of xsane and the ability to select either the flatbed or document feeder as well as the various output options. -- Right: I dislike the default color scheme Wrong: What idiot picked the default color scheme _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
