Hi Ben,

Quoting Ben <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Searching for a scanner that's plug and play.

I've got one of those HP Photosmart printers (the c6180) which are a printer, scanner, copier, fax machine, replicator all in one jobs. It really did work pretty much right out of the box (I think I had to install one package from the Ubuntu repos to get the GUI for it working, some qt3 package that wasn't installed by default).

I've had quite alot of experience with HP printers and scanners over the years and one thing that I've noticed with them is that if you can't find a specific driver for a newer product of their's, they'll just about always work with one the older drivers (although you might get slightly less features than the actual device supports).

Regards,
Dave.
