Sane Does Not Know about HP DeskJet F4140

Detailed description
The original bug was posted on ubuntu launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sane-backends/+bug/134841 : HP DeskJet F4140 is a new All-in-One (print, scan, copy) that is not in sane's database yet. Sane works fine for root, but users in group 'scanner' cannot access the All-in-One scanner functionality. To fix this, the following line needs to be added to /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libsane.rules: SYSFS{idVendor}=="03f0",SYSFS{idProduct}=="7e04",MODE="664",GROUP="scanner" In order to fix this in sane source code, the following section needs to be added to sane-backends/doc/descriptions/hp.desc: :model "DeskJet F4140" :interface "USB" :usbid "0x03f0" "0x7e04" :status :complete
