<p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">Dear Folks,</p>
<p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><br>
</p>
<p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">I bought an HP G2410
scanner. I haven't tried to install it yet. I run Debian Lenny
AMD64.

<p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><br>

<p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">The info in the sane
backends file is as follows:</p>

<p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">It seems as though this
scanner isn't as well supported as other hp machines under Linux.
But there is a proprietary scanner that apparently works on it:</p>

<p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">or do I need to
install more packages to get all the library files?</p>
<p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><br>
</p>
<p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">If I use the
proprietary HP2400 driver do I still need to put the extra line in
the .conf directory? It doesn't look it in these write ups.....</p>
