Hello, Thanks for the speedy reply!
It is a colour laser combi thing, Samsung CLX-3175. I managed to install it both via the manufacturers drivers and the open source ones and both worked fine for the printer but not the scanner. (I used the CLX-3170 driver). I'd really like to set this up as a networked printer and scanner. The networked printer bit works fine from either Linux or Windows being the host / client but the scanner doesn't appear to work in Linux (I may not have installed in correctly) and investigating setting up a networked scanner in Windows lead me to corporate style licensed software. This is just for a home environment with a couple of users (although would probably be useful for larger enterprises too if it works!) Oh, by the way, if I did find driver support for the scanner on Linux, or it came available in the future, would the Windows host be able to access the SANE scanner as a network scanner?
