<i>&gt; Further questions:</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; 1. Is Vuego really the same company as Acer? I.e., would a Vuego 42FOO scanner</i><br>
<i>&gt; be exactly the same as an Acer 42FOO?</i><br>
<p>
If you have a look at the Homepage of VUEGO you will see it - yes, its<br>
the European Headquarter in Spain.<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; 2. If Acer 310S is modified from Agfa Snapscan 310S, would that make an Acer</i><br>
<i>&gt; 620ST a modified Agfa Snapscan &lt;something&gt;?</i><br>
<p>
I can't say for sure that all ACER-scanners are derived from AGFA or vice<br>
versa.<br>
But if they are identical, they seem to share the ID.<br>
IE VUEGO 310P = AGFA SNAPSCAN 310P = ACER 310P (not supported,<br>
parallel-port version)<br>
VUEGO 310S = AGFA SNAPSCAN 310S = ACER 310S (under wintendo they use<br>
the same<br>
driver, as far as I could test it)<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; 3. Assuming there is some support for the Acer 310S, using the SnapScan</i><br>
<i>&gt; driver, can anyone estimate the chances of a later model like the 620ST</i><br>
<i>&gt; working, too? Do they really mess that much with the protocols between</i><br>
<p>
Who knows :-)) All firms tend to add more and more features.<br>
I would not take the risk to buy a scanner, that's not explicitly<br>
supported<br>
by a sane-driver. If I did, i might be in trouble, writing an own driver.<br>
<p>
Regards<br>
Wolfgang<br>
