  Hi,

  I don't know HP scanners, but ...

  PNM is deactivated in dll.conf by default in SANE 1.0.2.

  Did you check if your SCSI driver works and the scanner is found
  (tools/find-scanner and cat /proc/scsi/scsi)? Did you set the right
  permissions for the /dev/sg* device? Maybe you will get some output when you
  set the debug variable SANE_DEBUG_HP (see man sane-hp).

  Ciao, Henning
