I'm just curious if anyone has attempted, or thought about attempting,<br>
the writing of a driver for the new 'HP Photoscan' negative, slide,<br>
and print scanner.<br>
<p>
The reason I ask is that as far as I know, there is no other scanner<br>
which can scan negatives or slides at 2400dpi, 30 bit color, in its<br>
price range ($399).<br>
<p>
It looks like HP only provides a driver for win95, but the device is<br>
SCSI-II, and the box says it's twain compliant.<br>
<p>
How has HP cooperated in the past with SANE development efforts? Would<br>
they be likely to provide any sort of information or even devices to<br>
be used in the development of a driver?<br>
<p>
I have not used the device, so I can't really judge its quality. I'm<br>
just excited about the specifications and price. I'm used to using a<br>
Nikon SuperCoolscan at work, and am interested in the idea of scanning<br>
negatives for less money at home.<br>
<p>
Thanks for any information.<br>
<p>
