VueScan will do it, but it costs almost as much as a new USB Canonscan. I decided to put my MicroTek out to pasture for that reason, but worked well under VueScan in demo mode. The serial port is a different question, there are USB serial adaptors such as the Keyspan, and I have that in use as well to connect my aged telephone system for config purposes. It should handle the printer alright. If you have more than one computer in use, I would seriously conseider finding a printserver for the thing, and then connecting it via ethernet. b http://www.william-jurgenson.com -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
