I have the same issue with the HP Scanjet 8200. The scanner is seen by 
both simple scan and the aquire, but then they get a message that it can not 
open the scanner. Tried running some hp setup programs but no luck. I did 
find one message that was talking about Fedora 19, and it said to downgrade 
what I believe was a driver program to support scanners, but in doing a 
search in Fedora 20, it only had versions that were higher. 

Think it was some version.20 that was suppose to work, but Fedora 20 have 
version.24, and I think version.22 was the oldest version I could find.

Nice scanner, but it just sits on a file cabinet, since it will not work with 
Fedora 20.
