It seems the link points to some module to enable the use of a scsi adapter <br>
that's connected to a parallel port. Let me see if I'm getting this <br>
straight (100% newbie here, so be patient):<br>
1. I have this parallel port scanner xyz1000P that doesn't have a sane <br>
backend yet.<br>
2. There's a sane backend for its scsi cousin, the xyz1000SC.<br>
3. Then, probably the xyz1000P is just a xyz1000SC with some kind of <br>
parallel port scsi adapter inside. If I know the adapter, I'll be able to <br>
use this module to use a scsi driver to control a parport model.<br>
<p>
Is this correct? If it is, why was my parallel port scanner much cheaper <br>
then the scsi cousin? It has more hw inside (scsi+parport converter)!<br>
<p>
If it isn't, can you explain a bit more?<br>
<p>
TIA<br>

<i>&gt; I know nothing about your scanner, but I know parallel scanners are </i><br>
<i>&gt; supported.</i><br>
<i>&gt; At <a href="http://www.torque.net/parport/ppscsi.html">http://www.torque.net/parport/ppscsi.html</a> is a patch available. With </i><br>
<i>&gt; the</i><br>
<i>&gt; documentation at that webpage and the kernel-Howto you should be able to </i><br>
<i>&gt; get</i><br>
<i>&gt; the modules made, installed and loaded. This is for the adapter.</i><br>
<i>&gt; You should check wat chipset this adapter uses and see if there is a </i><br>
<i>&gt; module</i><br>
<i>&gt; included that supports that chipset. </i><br>
