In localhost.freebsd.questions you write:

>Just want to update my knowledge about availability of TWAIN/Mustek 
>scanner drivers for FreeBSD.

TWAIN doesn't work on FreeBSD AFAIK, but Musteks may, via SANE.  Try:

	http://www.mostang.com/sane/

>Can I connect my Mustek Paragon 600 flat bed scanner to my
>ncr/SCSI controller and scan pictures in one or the other way.

Probably, see above.

>E.g. using ImageMagick or Gimp?

GIMP is supported by SANE, as well as other standalone apps.  If 0.7x
doesn't work for you, try dropping back to 0.67 or so.
