  Hi.

  It's the *only* way to get good results under Linux with our system. There is
  a 50 pin on an Adaptec 2904 (yes, not 2940) to a 25 pin that goes into one of
  the scanner sockets. Under windows, it produces garbage without the
  terminator.

  We have wasted months thinking that the scanner was at fault which is why we
  bought an Epson. At last we have seen why the Umax range are held in such
  esteem!

  Steve.
