[SOLVED] Give An Old Scanner New Life with Linux Lite

[mandoran]

I just had this panic over the weekend, needing to scan in all my receipts for the tax man, and not realizing that the recent upgrade of a home office PC meant that none of the business machines I had could communicate with the scanner any longer. As N4RPS says, the drivers for this thing were abandoned years ago.

Pulled out the Linux Lite laptop, and the default scanner program identified the scanner immediately and I was up and running in a minute.
