Hi Anndras,
this should say: found processor "HP C2520A 3503"
So the find-scanner tool may also encounter the problems.

The 00-character is definitely wrong. The scanner should respond with a
'V' at that place like:
[hp] scsi_read: 16 bytes:
0x0000 1B 2A 73 32 35 37 64 30 56 50 20 20 20 20 20 20 .*s257d0VP

There could be several problems:
- the backend has problems with the DEC-Alpha architecture. But I think
there are other Alpha-users which use HP-scanners.
- Timing problems with read operations. It seems that the scanner has
recognized the Reset (EscE) and the inquire error stack command
(Esc*s257E). The beginning of the response is ok. But it is incomplete.
I have posted this to the sane-devel mailing list. Maybe someone knows a
solution to that problem.
Sincerely
Peter
