If hporig appears in /usr/local/etc/sane.d/dll.conf, scanimage -L
should find it. If this doesn't work, try running scanimage -L with
environment variables SANE_DEBUG_DLL and SANE_DEBUG_HPORIG set to 255.

BTW: I really would prefer if someone could integrate the hporig stuff
into hp. I don't want to have to distribute two different HP backends
if I can help it.
