I have an HP Photosmart 3210 All-in-One color printer. Printing works great, but I cannot get xsane to locate it on the local subnet.
I've been to the sane site and looked at the backends. The HP 3210 is supported by hpio and there is a note that hpio is no longer needed because the functionality has been rolled int hplip. yum shows hplip is installed: hplip.x86_64 1.6.7-4.1.el5.4 installed
Everything is on an internal nat address space. Host is at .1, Photosmart is at .251
/etc/services contains an entry for sane-port
xinet.d/ has a file for sane and sane-port (both identical)
iptables allows all outbound and established.
I've gone through several sets of guidance found on the Intenet. Almost all is for usb or scsi. Very little guidance on sane-net. Finally found one good set of guidance and followed it to configure dll.conf, and net.conf. I've looked at sane.net man page untill I'm cross-eyed.
Anyone successfully scanning from an HP Photosmart network printer?

I've found that in both RH/CentOS and Fedora, the hplip seems to be broken. Haven't looked into why. It works with printers, but seems to regularly fail with scanners. I know rpmforge also had an rpm--I gave it one try when it was first released, it didn't work with the scanner, so I just went back to using the source tarball from hplip.
Insert warnings about don't use something that isn't an rpm and so on.
You can look at my http://home.roadrunner.com/~computertaijutsu/hplip.html
which goes into installing it from the hplip source.
Unfortunately, hplip's site has been offline now for quite awhile, don't know what the story is. However, they have a link to download the source, the only thing that my article is missing is that they said to uninstall hplip and hpijs with rpm -e. They might have said uninstall a few other things too, but you'll find out if you see that you can't install something because of a conflict.

Missed mine, I guess, or it'd be working. :)

RHEL/CentOS have very old packages for HP printer/scanner support, although there will be a vastly updated version available in 5.6. I just got a new All-in-One e709a to work across the network with the packages from rpmforge.
You can use rpmforge through yum, or download the packages directly at http://packages.sw.be/hplip/
Once installed, run (as root) hp-setup

I have had rpmforge installed for some time. 'yum list hplip' gives me an old 1.x version that is installed. I obtained hplip-3.10.9 from sourceforge hplip project. When I run it here is the output:

that old version is in centos. Rpmforge now has several repos, packages that upgrade base centos rpms are now in the rpmforge-extras repo. This includes hplip which is at 3.10.6 in rpmforge-extras. See http://lists.rpmforge.net/pipermail/users/2010-November/003411.html

With CentOS 6 coming out one day, I think I'll wait...migrate to 6, then revisit getting the HP Photosmart 3210 All-in-One to scan and fax. But I will keep your guidance in mind.
Thanks.

I would, if you'll forgive the spamming, check out my article on it at http://home.roadrunner.com/~computertaijutsu/hplip.html
Though the hplipopensource.com page is down, the instructions should still be good (and if you go to their page, you can still get a link to a download--get the tar.gz file.
