I've just encountered another perfectly fine inexpensive scanner, the HP 3200C, that doesn't have SANE support and therefore can't be used under Linux. (The people I set it up for will have to use it under Windows, alas.) I know that SANE supports lots of scanners, but my impression is that most of them are high-end SCSI equipment. Has anyone seen a modestly priced (under $75) scanner that SANE supports? The SANE website has a list of supported scanners but no prices (of course), which makes it hard to find the cheaper ones.

Paul, here are some Epson products that have linux drivers. I bought a refurbished Epson 2400 for 75.00 from Epson. It works. They've had them as low as $40-50 refurbished. Rich http://www.epkowa.co.jp/english/linux_e/index.html -- Rich Matson Reno, Nv. USA
