Aaron, http://www.sane-project.org lists most scanners and the degree of support for each. More specificially, I can recommend the HP scanners; like their printers they are well supported by linux. I have an HP 5200C that works perfectly for all my needs (documents, the occasional photographic print). It's an older model with a USB connection and should be available used for a low price. Check craigslist and eBay. Rich _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
