<i>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; On Mon, 14 Jul 1997 08:00:23 -0700, John Culleton &lt;<a href="mailto:john@ccpl.carr.lib.md.us">john@ccpl.carr.lib.md.us</a>&gt; said:</i><br>
<p>
John&gt; My wife will buy me a (cheap) color scanner. Some choices<br>
John&gt; include: HP Scanjet 5s, Microtek Scanmaker E3, Mictotek Color<br>
John&gt; PageWiz, Artec ViewStation AT6, Inland ScanTAK 2c Scanner<br>
John&gt; (w/proprietary interface card). All are under $200 and some<br>
John&gt; give 4800 dpi max resolution, hopefully enough for photos.<br>
<p>
John&gt; I know the HP is supported but it is low res (300 dpi, 600 dpi<br>
John&gt; max).<br>
<p>
I haven't received any reports regarding the HP 5s. The 5p is known<br>
to work fine and I hope the same is true for the 5s, but I don't know<br>
for sure.<br>
<p>
John&gt; Are any of the others supported? Does TWAIN compliant<br>
John&gt; and an SCSI interface mean the scanner is supported by SANE?<br>
<p>
No, not as far as I can tell. TWAIN is meaningless as far as Linux is<br>
concerned. If you want something that is known to work, stick to<br>
what's listed in the relevant man pages (sane-mustek(5), sane-umax(5),<br>
sane-hp(5)).<br>
