    This is exactly what Petter suggested. But in the meantime I found
    another solution:
    A parallelport scanner-daemon.
    This daemon controls the scanner and communicates via pipes with
    the backend.
    It should run on other UNIX systems as well.
    ...

    I'm not sure if this works, but I think this sounds good.
    The problem is, that I have to rewrite the interface and some
    parallelport functions.

    Any comments on that ?
