Local charity shop sells a desktop scanner for next to nothing. I could
buy it and try it but it's very bulky and it's a long walk. So I'd like
to have a clue beforehand if it's supported.
The item is a Packard Bell Slimline PB 61428.
I googled it but haven't found anything relevant to Linux. The packaging
mentions Windows 98. I remember back in the day, the was a wrapper for
old Windows drivers, I can't remember its name.
Or am I supposed to just plug it in and expect it to work?
Run, do not walk, to the nearest exit, taking your cash with you.
