1 edit | Lion killed my scanner I upgraded to Lion and it broke the scanner on my HP LaserJet 3055. It took a lot of googling to find a work around to get it working again. If Lion hadn't wiped out my Snow Leopard backups, I could have simply copied over a file from the library/preferences folder to fix it. I had to completely uninstall and do a heavily modified re-install to get it working.

Do you have the links for fixing the HP LaserJet 3055 situation?

The first link is the quickest fix but it only works if you can copy the file you need from the library/preferences folder. You would need to get it before upgrading to Lion unless you have saved an image of your snow leopard.
The second link is what I used. There is one lengthy post that describes the whole procedure step by step. A little later in the thread someone describes how to post a sudo command by dragging an icon into terminal after typing sudo then hitting the spacebar once. I can now scan in Lion.
