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