Kilos | ohi superfly | 15:38 |
superfly | Hi Kilos | 15:38 |
mazal | grrrrrrrrrrrr | 16:15 |
mazal | Don't suppose anybody have a HP scanjet 200 scanner and got it working on linux ? | 16:16 |
octoquad | mazal, nope, but are using hplip already? | 16:27 |
mazal | octoquad, yep , already tried the newest one | 16:28 |
mazal | Seems it simply doesn't work with linux | 16:28 |
superfly | I have an officejet 4500, works out the box. | 16:39 |
superfly | mazal: which desktop environment are you using? | 16:40 |
superfly | mazal: and I presume it's USB? | 16:41 |
mazal | superfly, unity , 14.04.2 , 64bit , USB | 16:50 |
mazal | All info I can find online ends up in dead end | 16:51 |
superfly | I'm on KDE, and I just use "skanlite" | 16:54 |
superfly | Which uses xsane, IIRC | 16:55 |
superfly | You tried the GTK version? | 16:55 |
=== a7med is now known as Neo31 | ||
mazal | superfly, yep. Tried xsane also. Doesn't even detect it | 17:29 |
Kilos | isnt there simplescan mazal | 17:38 |
Kilos | last i used a hp printer inkjet printer simple scan saw it easy | 17:38 |
* Kilos thinks early to bed is wise | 17:41 | |
mazal | Kilos, that doesn't work either | 17:45 |
Kilos | ai | 17:48 |
Kilos | i think on one printer ting i had to use some modprobe comand | 17:49 |
Kilos | night all, sleep tight | 17:50 |
Kilos | see ya morrow | 17:50 |
inetpro | good evening | 17:57 |
inetpro | mazal: have you got the latest HPLIP package installed? | 17:57 |
inetpro | http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/index.html | 17:57 |
mazal | Yep , doesn't work | 17:59 |
inetpro | ai! | 17:59 |
inetpro | sad when this happens | 17:59 |
mazal | HPLIP doesn't even scan for scanners , just printers | 18:00 |
inetpro | HP used to be very well supported on linux | 18:00 |
mazal | Now I will be stuck on this stupid OS for a while longer :( | 18:01 |
inetpro | what info do you get about it when running lsusb? | 18:02 |
mazal | It's shows there. But can't remember all the exact info. | 18:03 |
superfly | mazal: output of lsusb and "tail -f /var/log/syslog" when you plug the scanner in? | 18:04 |
MaNI | it doesn't list in the sane list of supported scanners - while there are about 100 other hp scanjets there | 18:04 |
MaNI | so probably you will have a hard time to get it working if its possible at all | 18:04 |
mazal | Mani yeah, it just doesn't seem to be supported | 18:04 |
mazal | superfly, I already packed everything away :P | 18:05 |
superfly | mazal: how old is the scanner? | 18:05 |
mazal | 2 years | 18:05 |
mazal | +- | 18:05 |
mazal | I will just have to save up for a supported one I guess | 18:06 |
mazal | And will then ask you guys to recommend one | 18:06 |
* inetpro simply uses CamScanner on Android these days | 18:07 | |
MaNI | vuescan may work apparently | 18:07 |
inetpro | no need for a scanner anymore | 18:07 |
mazal | MaNI, is that an app ? | 18:07 |
inetpro | my scanner is always in my pocket | 18:08 |
MaNI | yes | 18:08 |
inetpro | yep, uses the camera and does a decent job at converting to pdf, image, etc | 18:08 |
MaNI | ahh, no vuescan only works for it on osx and windows | 18:08 |
mazal | Will write it down and try tomorrow. After 14 hours of struggling with computer crap not working I am a bit gatvol now | 18:09 |
MaNI | trash it :p | 18:09 |
mazal | k | 18:09 |
inetpro | press a button and send to who ever needs it | 18:09 |
MaNI | supporting osx but not linux, what messed up priorities | 18:10 |
octoquad | mazal, according to this: http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/supported_devices/index.html scanjets are not support with HPLIP. Additionally the technical specs only support Windows and Mac | 18:12 |
mazal | Yeah like I mentioned to inetpro , it only checks for printers | 18:14 |
octoquad | not supported with sane either: http://www.sane-project.org/sane-mfgs.html#Z-HEWLETT-PACKARD | 18:14 |
octoquad | bummer | 18:14 |
mazal | Yeah I be stuck | 18:15 |
octoquad | keep the sane-project.org link handy if do decide to get a new one | 18:15 |
inetpro | mazal: how often do you scan documents these days? | 18:16 |
octoquad | or just use a virtual machine and use the scanner? | 18:16 |
mazal | inetpro, about twice a month. But when I do it's VERY important | 18:17 |
inetpro | number of pages? | 18:17 |
mazal | octoquad, I know zip about virtual machines. Never even tried it. It's on my " to-learn " list for long time | 18:18 |
mazal | inetpro, About 30 or so | 18:18 |
inetpro | eish! | 18:18 |
mazal | Why eish ? | 18:18 |
MaNI | wonder how well vuescan works in wine | 18:19 |
inetpro | a physical scanner might be what you need | 18:19 |
mazal | That's why I have one | 18:19 |
inetpro | but you might want to try the Android way anyway, maybe you find it practical after all | 18:22 |
mazal | I don't have an Android | 18:22 |
mazal | My phone can't even do facebook lol | 18:22 |
inetpro | hmm... what mobile phone do you have? | 18:22 |
mazal | I only use cheapie phone , one of these 299 tjoppies | 18:23 |
inetpro | yikes! | 18:23 |
mazal | I had a smartphone once , and when they told me R700 for new battery I calmly fetched my hammer | 18:24 |
mazal | Since then no smart phones | 18:24 |
inetpro | wb MaNI | 18:25 |
MaNI | tx | 18:27 |
mazal | Sjoe head is spinning. Gonna crash | 18:27 |
mazal | Sleep well everyone , thanx for trying | 18:27 |
Cryterion | Evening Everyone | 18:37 |
octoquad | evening Cryterion | 18:42 |
