Hi all: For complex financial reasons, we need to buy something now and we thought it should be a scanner. We would like to go USB since SCSI is expensive and parallel is sooo slow. Anyway, I need to know if there are any issues with using USB scanners under 2.2.18. Are there drivers for each scanner or is there like some kind of standard interface? Also, I have a PC without onboard USB support. I believe that I can get a card for USB without too much expense to the management. But does this create problems for the USB support under linux? Any comments would be helpful. This is a matter of some urgency. Geoff.
