Possibly. DTC SCSI cards (or similar ones with a different name) seem to
be shipped with various scanners.
They are not well supported in Linux but you can apparently get them to
work. It is necessary to obtain a kernel patch from
ftp://ftp.mostang.com/pub/sane/mustek-scsi-patch-0.5.gz
You have to apply this to the kernel source and recompile the kernel[1]. I
have not done this yet as it would be my first kernel build and I recon I
would need a whole distraction-free afternoon alone with my computer --
this doesn't happen often.

No. Mine came with an Artec AT12
> Does this scanner work under linux?
I don't know. I'll forward this to the SANE mailing list and see if any of
the SANE gurus know. It doesn't seem to be listed on the SANE web page,
though.

[1] This patch is relative to the kernel 2.0.31 . Does anyone know if it
ever got into the official Linux kernel?
