My Hp laserjet 3055 Scanner won't work
I have Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and a HP Laserjet 3055 Printer.
I installed Hplip-3.12.9 and then discovered that Ubuntu had already installed printer drivers.
When I looked into System Settings>
But there is no scanner drivers or device that I can find. I need the scanner.
I am pasting below, the output I got when I ran "hp-check -t" in the terminal.
Please help. Thank you.

This is free software, and you are welcome to distribute it
under certain conditions. See COPYING file for more details.
Note: hp-check can be run in three modes:
1. Compile-time check mode (-c or --compile): Use this mode before compiling the
HPLIP supplied tarball (.tar.gz or .run) to determine if the proper dependencies
are installed to successfully compile HPLIP.
2. Run-time check mode (-r or --run): Use this mode to determine if a distro
supplied package (.deb, .rpm, etc) or an already built HPLIP supplied tarball
has the proper dependencies installed to successfully run.
3. Both compile- and run-time check mode (-b or --both) (Default): This mode
will check both of the above cases (both compile- and run-time dependencies).
Check types:
a. EXTERNALDEP - External Dependencies
b. GENERALDEP - General Dependencies (required both at compile and run time)
c. COMPILEDEP - Compile time Dependencies
d. [All are run-time checks]
