  21.  Scanners

  For scanner support there is the package SANE (Scanner Access Now
  Easy). Information can be found at  <http://www.mostang.com/sane/>. It
  can be downloaded from  <ftp://ftp.mostang.com/pub/sane/>. This is a
  universal scanner interface. It comes complete with documentation and
  several frontends and backends.

I have a HP scanjet 3 scanner (Black and White) but sane does not support
it and says SCSI device not found. could not really figure out why. if you
do then get in touch with me :)
BTW I have the sane tarball. If you are interested mail me.
