    Only one IP: 192.168.1.103

    Try putting it into /etc/sane.d/net.conf and then try scanimage -L

      This was the result. It is the only entry in that file:

      No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
      check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
      sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
      which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).

      And yes, the scanner is turned on.

          Since nmap isn't picking it up and this didn't work, it seems like your router is blocking the connection between the two devices.

              No it is a fully Kubuntu machine right out of the box.
              http://www.sane-project.org/sane-mfgs.html] I took a look at this and there are a lot of HP units, mine is not listed. This does not make sense as the scanner was working fine on this version of Kubuntu previously. I'm wondering if I am using the right HPLP?

                  There seems to be a problem with the nmap command options you gave.
                  I did the nmap command, and it did not detect my printer, nor my NAS, but I can ping them

                    Well, you can see my nmap results. Everything on my network shows up - wired or un-wired - all through a power-line ethernet set, a 16 port switch and a router with wireless all the away across the house.

                            Got a long output but I think the key line is:
                            warning: Printer is not HPLIP installed. Printers must use the hp: or hpfax: CUPS backend for HP-Devices.

                                Well, it seems you can reach the printer but without hplip installed properly, you're not going to be scanning. Have you run hp-setup?
