Have a look at http://freecolormanagement.com/sane/ it has info on SANE EPSON Backends, so it should point you in the right direction. -- Regards, Graham Smith ---------------------------------------------------------

Thanks for any experience any of you have had. I have a Epson Perfection 1250 Photo USB scanner and it works very well for me. Patrick on this list sent me a program that allows me to have better control of it (using the Transparency Unit). The program was called iscan and I'm a happy camper. You can find it by Googling for it cause I forgot the URL that you can go to to download it. :-( On the site it will tell you which ones will work with that program if that helps.

HI Fred, I have an Epson 1660 that I'm using with SuSE 8.0 and the latest (x)sane software with no problems whatsoever. Later, Andy -- Andy Stewart, Founder Worcester Linux Users' Group Worcester, MA USA http://www.wlug.org
