I need help for using scanner

Hi all
I've been using Porteus for a short time.
I'm amazed at the super fast booting from USB on my old laptop.
I had to set everything up and make it work.
Wifi worked the same.
I save changes as a module.
I still don't quite understand the principle of the dat container.

But I can't scan.
The Document Scanner always reports "No Scanners Detected"
Even a reboot does not help.

I use an HP all-in-one multifunction device
I'm doing something wrong.
But what?
Can you help me?
Thanks

Hi roro,
it's always good to search the forum first!
There are some threads on the keyword "scanner"
Your scanner is probably not recognized
I have the same problem.

It's an easy approach for users who want to save their changes on non-Ext drives, like exFAT USB drives, and don't know how to make modules.
