  Hi,

  Finally, one of my emails to Acer got the answer I was looking for :
  From: APFService@acercm.com.tw
  Subject: RE: Support for Scanner Acer S2W 3300U ("Scan to Web")
  Date: Fri, 6 Jul 2001 09:01:55 +0800

  Dear Customer:
  Thanks for using acer.
  Please download the driver for Linux in following link.
  http://www.acercm.com.tw/tw/service/scan/drivers/Linux/sane-1.0.4.tar.gz
  Regards
  CMP Service Center

  I downloaded the tarball, compiled it (well, the script did it !) and after a
  few months fighting with my scanner, it _worked_.
  Just changed from egcs-2.91.66 to gcc-2.96, and not only compiled but worked
  just like it was supposed to be.
  Preview, scan in color&b/w, etc.

  [nuno@localhost nuno]$ scanimage -L
  device `colorusb:/dev/usb/scanner0' is a Color FlatbedScanner21 flatbed
  scanner
  [nuno@localhost nuno]$

  Sorry if you already knew that Acer was making available a "backend?" (I
  didn't find it in the sane/usb documention, links or mailing list archive)
  but for me this was a "Finally I can use my scanner !".

  Thank's to USB & SANE & ACER & all the other guys !

  Nuno Nunes

  P.S. - The first message I sended to this mailing list was CC'd to usb devel
  and Acer, but didn't arrive here. (My other email address was not subscribed
  to the list)
