Hmmm, I do have this scanner, and seeing as I got it for free<br>
makes me think it is worth investing a little time into using it under<br>
linux. Oddly enough when I contacted Fujitsu about developer information<br>
for the 3096, I was told to contact Advent Imaging, a company here in the<br>
UK, about UNIX support.<br>
I am not sure quite what support they would have given me but if<br>
you were given some info on the scanner I would love to see it and figure<br>
out if it is something I could attempt and make a SANE backend for?<br>
It does strike me and kinda odd that NO Fujitsu support has been<br>
mentioned for SANE, was this company hostile to the idea of open source<br>
stuff, or is it just that their scanners are pretty much exclusivly used<br>
in corperate enviroments and so no one has ever bothered?<br>
Having said that, this scanner does have some nice feature and I<br>
would like to see some sort of consistant way of supporting ADF on other<br>
scanners too for batch scanning perhaps OCR work? <br>
