  you need read and write permissions for those who want access to the
  scanner. Use chmod 666 /dev/hpscan to allow access to everyone.
  Please check if your hp.conf looks like

  /dev/hpscan
  option connect-device

  The line "option connect-device" below /dev/hpscan is important.
  Otherwise the backend tries a SCSI-connection.
