Hopefully you won't make that mistake again - IMHO "all-in-one" does
"nothing-very-well"... :-(

As noted by others:-
"Scan is not supported for HP Deskjet 2050 J510 series"
quoting from http://hplipopensource.com/node/342

But before you give up on support under Linux you might try emailing the
Vuescan (commercial scanning program) developer - I've found him to be
very helpful. (Vuescan works very well)
