I am having a similar problem, on a continuously updated Testing. It happened progressively: the scanner disappeared from different auto-detected lists but stayed in others (like the XSane and xscanimage menu entries in The Gimp, at one point one worked and not the other). I did not notice exactly when, since most my uses are scripted. I noticed recently that it has got down to the scanner not being detected at all, but still working if I give the address explicitly, i.e.: scanimage -d 'hpaio:/net/Photosmart_2570_series?ip=10.0.0.32' xsane 'hpaio:/net/Photosmart_2570_series?ip=10.0.0.32' xscanimage 'hpaio:/net/Photosmart_2570_series?ip=10.0.0.32' It is still annoying for the few cases where I need a GUI because it is not integrated with the image manipulation programs. I have not yet had time to fully investigate, I will gladly read the other replies to this thread. In the meantime, I hope the information that it may work by giving the full address can be of some help. Regards, -- Nicolas George
