RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
After setting up the OfficeJet with the hplip-gui. Trying to run xsane or scanimage gives this error message.

[ben@snog ~]$ scanimage -d hpaio:/net/Officejet_Pro_8500_A909g?ip=192.168.1.105
scanimage: open of device hpaio:/net/Officejet_Pro_8500_A909g?ip=192.168.1.105 failed: Invalid argument

How reproducible:
always 

Steps to Reproduce:
make sure that you don't have the libsane-hpaio rpm installed and setup the printer using hplip-gui then try to scan.

Actual results:
it fails with that invalid argument message

Expected results:
it works.

Additional info:
the problem is that you need the libsane-hpaio rpm to be installed. Maybe it should be a dependency for hplip-gui? At the very least those programs should have a much better error message as to why they failed.

Installing the libsane-hpaio fixes the problem
