maybe it does not matter. But any hint which model ?

You can also find some basic hints about HP-scanners and USB on

There are two places where the hp.conf can reside:

/etc/sane.d/hp.conf and /usr/local/etc/sane.d/hp.conf

And you can try to start xscanimage like

xscanimage hp:/dev/usb/usbscanner0

to force to select a certain device.
