Dimitris, I tried to get a parallel scsi emulated piece of HP junk going and found that it was theoretically possible. A web page accessed thru the SANE site indicated that all I needed to do was become a linux scanner interface design engineer. I figured I would have it going within three or four years and lost interest at that point.
My advice - life is short - scanners are cheap. That said, I now have a nice new USB scanner. Works great - as long as I boot W$ to use it ;-) Message - read the compatibility list before going to the computer shop - but you knew that! HTH Brian P.S. Not a stupid question! There are none and this was less so than many - most of them mine.
