Yes, I tried it as route and both F-23 desktop boxes, USB 2 and 3 ports, 
checked that the following had been done [from my notes]:

I am beginning to think the scanner has failed. I bought it new and it 
has lived an easy life, little used, however stuff does fail ... It has 
always just worked!

I think I will try the xsane list, assuming it still exists, before I 
give up. I have a similar HP scanner I can try if I can find the wall 
wart for it,

Thank you for your response,

Bob
