I own a HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M176n. I installes hplip and hplip-plugin (from AUR). I'm sure, the Scanner worked end of last year.
The Scanner ist detected by xsane as hpaio:/net/HP_Color_LaserJet_Pro_MFP_M176n?ip= ...(scanners ip). When I trie to scan, I get the message "... I/O-failure.
Can anyone help?

I think the first thing to do would be to check that hplip-plugin is up to date.
Failing that, your error message is too short to be helpful; if you copy-paste the full output there might be something useful to work from. Also, if you can figure out how to use the CLI scanimage tool instead, then you can pass a '--verbose' flag which might help narrow down the problem.

thanks for reply, pypi.
I'm actually not at home. I'll post the requested informations next weekend.

Hi,
this is the output of scanimage
scanimage -d hpaio:/net/HP_Color_LaserJet_Pro_MFP_M176n?ip=192.168.178.15 -A
scanimage: open of device hpaio:/net/HP_Color_LaserJet_Pro_MFP_M176n?ip=192.168.178.15 failed: Error during device I/O

Does printing work? Does scanning work if you plug the printer in via USB? If you run scanimage with the --verbose flag what is the output?
Google suggested that you could "turn the printer off and leave it for a bit" and see whether that fixes the issue? Our own wiki also has another printer (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/SA … ction_1270) with a similar issue, with the suggestion to check the "transportation lock" and specify the X and Y coords to scanimage - do either of those work?

Turning the printer off an leaving it for a bit fixed it. Things can be so easy ...
Thanks pypi for help.
