Has anyone set up one of these for scanning? I got the printer to work with no problem, but the scanner isn't being recognized.

It is a USB connection on Sarge with a 2.4.2 kernel.

Have you installed the hpoj package? (apt-get install hpoj). After you've installed hpoj, look in /usr/share/doc/hpoj/html and open the index.html file for detailed instructions on how to set up printing and scanning. Post back here if you run into problems.
