Ditto...The Microtek scanners are really SCSI with an on-board
parallel-to-SCSI adapter chip built in to the scanner. The manufacturer is
On-Spec and the chip is the 90c26 series. Whats the current state of
development for that driver? I quote:
"The 90c26 chip from OnSpec Electronics, which the PARIDE suite supports
as a parallel port IDE adapter, also includes an integral SCSI host
adapter. A driver for this device is being worked on, but is not yet
available."
