That's right for scanners that are supported by the backends that come with sane-backends. However, the HP ScanJet 3300C is supported by a so-called external backend. That means that there is a backend called "niash", but it doesn't come with sane-backends yet. Probably SuSE provided an additional package for that scanner or a package with some extrenal backends. At least that's the case on Debian. If you want to build the backend yourself, see the niash backend homepage: http://home.kabelfoon.nl/~bertrik/hp3300c/index.html Bye, Henning
