Hello.

I have a client's old 15" MacBook Pro, from 2008, that has the updated 
Mac OS X 10.5.8. His HP OfficeJet 6110 all-in-one machine (USB) works 
fine for printing, but scanning is a problem. Image Capture v4.0 does 
not detect this connected HP OfficeJet 6110 due to lack of TWAIN driver. 
I looked for the latest driver on HP.com web site, but it said to use 
the one supplied from Mac OS X 10.5 which is already is used as 6100 series.

According to 
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01234231&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=219&product=79477&sw_lang= 
, it says "... Scanning is no longer supported when using Mac OS v10.5 
with the following products: ... HP Officejet 6100 series". That stinks. :(

So, is there a third party driver or a way to use this old HP 
OfficeJet's scanner for Mac OS X 10.5.8? I know its scanning works with 
his very old Dell Optiplex PC with updated Windows 2000 SP4 with its HP 
drivers and software package.

Thank you in advance. :)
