Hello,<div><br></div><div>Thank you for your response, I spent some time this week-end on my problem.</div><div><br></div><div>Actually, hpoj was not used, I removed it to be sure and nothing changed. The version of hplip installed is 2.8.6.b-4. I tried to reduce the preset-area-height but it seems to be calculated somewhere else, the preview area was only a few pixels high. How can I change this value?</div>
<div><br></div><div>The workaround I found is to make the preview with A5 portrait format, it is ok for small documents such as 11x15 photos but not enough for common use.</div><div><br></div><div>If there is no solution may be I should reinstall hpoj and recompile xsane with ptal enable. I wonder if there will be conlict with Cups because it uses hplip for printing. Where are old version of xsane and sane sources?</div>

I think this scanner is supported by the hplip project's hpaio<br>
backend. I think hpoj is no longer maintained. Perhaps you could ask<br>
them, though their website was down the last time I looked.<br>
