I'm another that's perfectly happy with my SCSI interfaced scanner. a Fujitsu M3097DG - B&W! It does everything I want, so I see no reason to replace it.

My only issue is that, last time I checked it was still interleaving the front and back of a page when duplex scanning. ( two page images, both with diagonal stripes of front/back/front/back/...)

(One of these days I'm going to dig into Sane and fix that..)

Please, don't drop SCSI support without good reason!

Me wonders too.  I haven't seen one this century.  I even wonder if SCSI

happily using my HP6300C through the SCSI bus with sane ... I do not know how
many people like me are "out in the wild", but I am glad to have sane support
this - one can buy such devices for close to nothing and they simply do what
they were built to do, maybe slow, but who cares .... ;-)

So, if it was me to decide (it is not, I know :-)) I wouldn't drop SCSI
support if it is not causing harm ...
Take care
