Thank you.  I did as you suggested and SANE has indeed installed successfully.
However, I'm still in a bit of a bind as to how to actually install the device
itself.  There is absolutely no documentation on this anywhere that I can see.  I'm
now as far as trying to run xsane from Gimp and now I get the message "no devices
available."  Would you happen to know where I can find docs on this that actually
tell me how to install the thing?  Sane sure doesn't provide any and neither does HP
(I've spent the better part of 2 days looking)...
