I think that terminator is embedded to the scaner, as it works good enough
under Win95. And there's no place on scanner to put it :).
It connected with SCSI card by LPT-like connector.
I think that problem is that this scaner/card is not _real_ SCSI device,
and standard SCSI init process failed on it.
