Tell me about it.  I've got a Canon BJC-80.  It's a great little machine
that is small enough to fit in my laptop bag with my laptop, and light
enough that I can reach my destination with both arms still the correct
length #;-D

Don't get me wrong - this works GREAT as a printer from Linux.

The problem is that it also functions as a scanner.  At least, it does
in Windoze.  Canon have not released the scanner drivers for Linux.
They do not answer e-mails on the subject.  They won't even release the
specs so that others can write one...

Regards,
Ozz.
