I have a very old HP OfficeJet 630 parallel port multifunction printer/scanner/fax machine.
Prior to Fedora 9, I had no problems with xsane/sane recognizing the scanner function.
After installing Fedora 9 and going to the Software Add to include the HP support for sane, xsane still can not find my device.
I have installed it as a printer without any issues.
This scanner is not listed as a supported scanner by sane:
http://www.sane-project.org/sane-supported-devices.html
However, googling around suggests that there's some support in hplip:

Make sure you have the hplip rpm installed.
Prior to attempting to us my OfficeJet for scanning, I installed it as a printer using the System/Administration/Printing setup application.
Through this process, Fedora 9 recognized my printer.
Following the information, I checked to see that hplip was installed and found that it was. I included the graphical front end. After installing the graphical front end, the installation asked if I wish to run the program. I answered yes and it responded saying that it was unable to find any devices the subsequently crashed.
