At least, under Google and eBay, one can add exclusionary terms:
hp 9100 -printer -scanner
Seems to do pretty well under Google. Under eBay I had to add a lot
more exclusions, and ran out of room.

never actually reused a product number.
I know that's no consolation when you search for "HP 5480" for that
product, and get printers or supplies with that "marketing number"
instead.
I get irritated when I search for HP9100 (meaning the first desktop
scientific calculator thing) and get hits for some modern-ish
printer/scanner. Admittedly that is a 9100C (the calculators were
9100A and 9100B), but...
I seem to remember that there are at least 5 different HP10 calculators :
HP9810 (which was called the 'Model 10 Calculator')
HP10 (or HP10A) : A simple handheld adding machine with printer
HP10C : The simplest of the 'Voyager' series. Scientific, programable
HP10B : A simple financial machine
HP10B-II : An upgraded HP10B
