The all-in-one went on sale and I decided to buy it to try it. I am seeing the following on my linux mint katya x64 system here:

I also tried using simple-scan, but it is complaining. I don't see the format of the device documented for it, so perhaps this is a simple error? Where do I go from here? Dave
