Here is a reply I got from Minolta re: my request for the tech-docs<br>
for the Dimage Scan Dual scanner.. <br>
<p>
I must say I fairly dismayed by this attitude, especially that they<br>
brand me an "individual customer" after I had made it clear in the<br>
request that the information would enable me (us) to develop the driver<br>
on our own, and thus was not intended for just me myself.<br>
<p>
I think we may have to publish a note on the SANE site to discourage<br>
people from buying Minolta Scanners, until their attitude changes..<br>
<p>
regards<br>
