Running 'Scanner Manager' it see's the device here "/dev/scsi/sc1d6l0".
Opening 'gscan' allows me to successfully scan a document.
I open Toonz's 'scan' module and it comes back with the error in Message Box stating:
"scan: unable to open communication with scanner on /dev/scanner".
"scan: unable to inquiry scanner".

Check for a /dev/scanner device file. If there's none, you could try creating a symbolic link from /dev/scanner to /dev/scsi/sc1d6l0.

Or get major and minor numbers and file modes of /dev/scsi/sc1d6l0 and create /dev/scanner with these same attributes using mknod (man mknod).

Hi and thanks for the quick reply. I tried as root ln -s /dev/scanner /dev/scsi/sc1d6l0 and it appeared to accept it, though trying the "Scan" module again I get this error:

"scan: execution of inquiry_standard command failed (status unknown)"
"scan: unable to inquiry scanner"

Listing /dev/scanner it doesn't a sym link to /dev/scsi/sc1d6l0.
/dev/scsi appears to have a sym link to /hw/scsi which contains sc1d6l0.

I tried ln -s /dev/scanner to /hw/scsi/sc1d6l0 but got the reply of "Function not implemented".

Not sure what's wrong here!

Any more advice!

Wrong order of arguments.

I'm not sure what is your scanner's model number but:
Toonz uses embedded scanner drivers under IRIX.
The only compatible HP Scanners as far as I know:
ScanJet 4C
HP6100C
HP6250C
HP6350C
HP6390C

Hi guys and thanks for pointing out the correct "order of arguments" robespierre.
With that done Scan still doesn't see my HP6270 scanner.

Going by the list from "blaiserulez" I must assume no compatibility.
I appreciate everyones help here.
