On Linux: install the SANE and XSane packages, including the XSane GIMP Plugin. Setting up SANE is a little confusing for newbies, but it just takes a "Doh!" moment to realize it isn't that hard. On Windows: I think you need to configure your scanner with TWAIN, whatever that is. On Mac: I have no idea. GIMP does not have built in scanner support. It utilizes whatever scanner support is available from your operating system. -- Michael J.
