What Scanner to buy?
Hi again, Thanks to all of you I got the system almost set up... :) But could anybody point me towards a scanner I can use with SuSE 7.3 ? thanx in advance, Johannes
Hi. Epson 640U. Or any Epson USB for that matter. Works out of the box. Steve On Friday 30 November 2001 10:26, you wrote:

A slight correction on that. The Epson 1250U does not work with Linux. There is talk that it may never work, but who knows. Except for this scanner (which is the exception that proves the rule as they say) other Epson USB scanners should work fine (out of the box I may question though).

Hi everyone. By 'out of the box', I meant that Yast2 picked it up and it worked right away from gimp. Even in winders you have to put in an installation disk to get the scanner recognised! ¡vaya gente! Steve. On Friday 30 November 2001 21:15, you wrote:

I can enthusiastically recommend the Epson 1200U, a USB scanner that works well with SuSE and SANE, and gives great scans. This scanner is easy to get working in SuSE. As a general rule, Epsons are known for being easy to set up in Linux. You should still check the SANE page to make sure you have a model that is known to work.

Hi I have Epson perfection 640U, and it is working great! I would say, buy Epson except Perfection 1250, that is not supported. Jaska. Viestissä Lauantai 1. Joulukuuta 2001 05:08, Matthew Kennedy kirjoitti:
