F20 - HP3050 scanning problems

[Paul Erickson]

I am having trouble getting F20 to work with the scanning function of my 
HP3050. hplip and hp-setup are installed, and the printing function 
works fine, but the "Simple scan" and Xsane are not able to see the 
scanner. Running hplip-3.14.1.run returns a F20 not supported error, 
stating that I can try the F19 files. I have not proceeded with that 
option as I am concerned that doing so might cause more problems.

Further google searches have revealed no other information that seems 
relevant.

Any suggestions?

cheers, Paul
