I certainly don't want start a flame war over HP vs Brother; however,
with the exception that Brother doesn't support FreeBSD, I like
everything about it better than the HP offerings.

I all ready shared the "scanned" directory on my main MS machine, so I
can easily access it from the FreeBSD PC. It is not the best solution;
however, it is certainly a workable one.

Brother does have scanner drivers available at:

I have just never been able to convert them into something that works
on FreeBSD. Plus, the fact that I don't have a spare machine that I can
use to try it out on isn't helping the problem either.
