HP Envy 6430e doesn't scan area selected in preview window
I recently acquired a HP ENVY 6430e and set this up with HPLIP-3.21.4 on Xubuntu 16.04 and HPLIP-3.23.12 on Xubuntu 18.04. Printing seems OK. I then installed hplip-3.21.4-plugin and hplip-3.
This is OK provided the scan area selected in the preview window starts at the top left corner. If the area selected is elsewhere on the platten, the scanner scans the selected size but not the position on the platten.
Is this likely a software problem (HPLIP or Xsane?), a hardware problem or a set-up problem?
I should add that I have an old OfficeJet 6950 and a Canon LiDE 400 both of which work fine on the same set-up, straight "out-of-the-box".
Sorry if I've missed something ovbious.
