There are still four entries, but (drum roll) one works for document scanner and also for xsane...
Yippee
Thank you so much for your help and patience on this one Brian

Thanks for that, but already tried each of the options, none work, always failed to connect

Whoa, all three of those command work, and the scanner kicks in.....but if I try simple scan or xsane it fails???

scanimage -L device `hpaio:/usb/ENVY_5540_series?serial=TH6BH2T1D70673' is a Hewlett-Packard ENVY_5540_series all-in-one device `hpaio:/net/envy_5540_series?ip=192.168.0.5&queue=false' is a Hewlett-Packard envy_5540_series all-in-one device `escl:https://192.168.0.5:443' is a ESCL HP ENVY 5540 s...

Thanks for the response (and patience) I have re-read the post and have installed ipp-usb from the link supplied. Makes no difference, still cannot connect to the scanner. systemctl status ipp-usb outputipp-usb.service - Daemon for IPP over USB printer support Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/ipp...

Thanks Brian
dpkg-query: package 'ipp-usb' is not installed

I did check in Synaptic, and it doesn't appear there either

Unit ipp-usb.service could not be found

I have tried re-installing ippusbxd, still same output from systemctl status

I tried installing hplip-gui from synaptic, it the claims in a terminal it claims not to be there I tried installing the latest version of hp-lip from the HP site. It installs, but both imple scan and xsane ask for which device to use. I selected the last one installed, the scanner starts to whir th...

Thanks for the suggestions, sadly they didn't work. Any other ideas peeps?

So, I have a HP Envy 5546 all-in one. The printer works if I install nothing. That's the upside. The scanner doesn't work. I've tried installing hplip from the hp site, no joy I have installed HPlip-gui from synaptic....no joy On both occasions, all I get is, the scanner starting, then a message 'fa...

As the subject suggests....get-iplayer seems have vanished. Is there anyway to install it?

@ deepakdeshp sorry to be a bearer of bad news, but I tried on my old laptop to use live usb, everything worked fine. Installed Linux, and wifi dropped randomly, good way to test but no 100% guarantee

Shouldn't be a problem, I have several, one I used only today to transfer files was FAT32, no issue on windows or Linux, must be another issue. Can you see the drive in GParted?

FWIW, coming in a little late on this discussion, I have recorded vinyl via the amp headphone connection to my laptop and used audacity, works a charm. I tend to be lazy and let the whole side record, then edit it into separate tacks, again using audacity I tend to save as flac and if required for t...

FWIW, for ripping I use K3B, but it's a bit overkill for just ripping CD's
A|nd, converted me to Asunder (pardon the pun) looks OK, will try it out some more

soundconverter works for me, it's in the repos

Tried Win10 before coming back to Mint, found that 10 updates could literally freeze the machine until complete, not good. Mint just rocks

FWIW, I migrated from Thunderbird as it 'lost' my passwords. When I setup Evolution, all I did for gmail was to enter my gmail address and it went off and sorted everything else out, only thing I then needed was to enter password on first run Not sure if anyone here can shed any light on the changin...
