I've tried to make my Raspberry Pi into a print/scan server today. The CUPS print server install & config ran fine and everything works, however I'm not able to get SANE scan server to work.
I'm using the hplip library from the raspbian repo
When running a scan program (eg. scanimage) it fails with an error
scanimage: open of device hpaio:/net/HP_Color_LaserJet_CM1312nfi_MFP?zc=NPI156760 failed: Error during device I/O
When examining the syslog, I found the following:
Jun 27 18:20:21 raspberrypi scanimage: scan/sane/soapht.c 90:
unable to load restricted library /usr/share/hplip/scan/plugins/bb_soapht.so:
/usr/share/hplip/scan/plugins/bb_soapht.so:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
It looks like the required library is missing, however upon examining the directory:
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ ll /usr/share/hplip/scan/plugins/
total 184

The file in question exists.
I tried reinstalling the hplip library from the website, instead of the repo, however I'm getting errors such as:
configure: error: "cannot find libjpeg support"
When trying to install all of the required dependencies as people suggested while troubleshooting this, I get a lot of missing packages:
E: Unable to locate package libcups2-dev
E: Unable to locate package libcupsimage2-dev
E: Package 'libdbus-1-dev' has no installation candidate
E: Package 'ghostscript-x' has no installation candidate
E: Unable to locate package libssl-dev
E: Unable to locate package libjpeg8-dev
...
I spent the past few hours trying to fix this to no avail
EDIT: Also, when running hp-check, it displays a lot of missing packages (probably the ones missing above).
