I did some work on an older Mustek scanner last year. Two results of my work are on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/: -rw-rw-rw- 1 root lemis 53812 Jul 29 12:18 muscan.tar.gz -rw-rw-rw- 1 root lemis 45418 Jul 29 12:18 scan.tar.gz IIRC, I got the first one to scan, but the colours were out. I gave it up mainly because the scanner (multipass) was too slow. Greg
