may be fighting an uphill battle here..., but I'd like to move the old (ancient, tank size) HP 6100c SCSI scanner w/ ADF from its home of the last several years attached to a frankenmac'ed beige G3, to a QS dual 800. we have an assortment of SCSI adapters, and would like to know what would be best; adaptec 2930, various flavors of 2940's (apple & retail), atto (apple & retail) and initio.
QS has X.3.9, and HP doesn't support the scanner past 8.6, but it has been running on 9.2.x w/ whatever unsupported drivers were leftover. are there any generic OS X scanner drivers that might work, and then allow a third party program (like PSE, or OmniPage) to control the scanner in the absence of HP OS X software? HP's website makes classic sound like a stretch, so a SCSI device in OS X would be nice, while trying to put off buying something new a bit longer. thanks,
Buzz
