<EM>&gt; &gt; I am looking to buy a cheap (&lt;US$200) 8x14 scanner. They are a bit hard to
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; find, but what makes this a real headache is Linux support. Can anyone give
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; me some advice?
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Well, I know this issue is preference oriented, but after looking at what
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; is available for $200 USD or less, I would purchase a used mid-range scsi
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; scanner before I purchased new low-end... I have three used Fujitsu 600C
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; scanners that I purchased for less than $ 150 USD each (They retail for about
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; $1500 USD). I have had all of them for over a year and they are being
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; used in high volume applications and have *never* given me any problems.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; They will scan up to 8 inches x 12 inches (Or A4) and have automatic document
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; feeders that hold up to 50 pages. I have two of them hanging off of
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Adaptec 2940UW adapters and one hanging off of an adaptec 1542 adapter.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; They are well supported under the SANE backend as well as with the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; front-ends xscanimage and xsane.

<P>That's funny, I looked and didn't see any supported Fujitsu scanners on the sane
<BR>
homepage or in the backend distribution. What does it emulate? I use a Sharp
<BR>
JX-610 with is an 11x14 hi res color scanner under sane 1.0.4, and am very happy
<BR>
with it. I also bought mine used for less than $100 (included the still unwrapped
<BR>
transparency backlight). I once saw one on some dealer's web page for $10K+ 8-).
