I have that scanner, and it is a wonderful scanner. It is a parallel
port. I do know my way around computers, and I spent hours and hours
trying to get it to work on a 486. (No EPP port). Never did get it to
work. It only took me 2 hours to get it to work on my Pentium.
(Conflicts). If I had it to do over again, I would NEVER EVER get a
Parallel port scanner again. Too much grief to set them up.       Tom
