I have just managed to get my HP scanner working within the last hour. The only serious thing I needed to do was edit two files in /etc/sane.d
The first was dll.conf where I rem'd out all the entries except net and hp
the second was hp.conf where I made a minor change for it to read
/dev/usb/scanner0
option connect-device
Checking first that there was a scanner0 in /dev/usb, which there was.
That was it - then xscanimage worked a treat. Sane-find-scanner gave similar errors to those you experienced.
