No, but there's some work being done on a Windows version of SANE, WINSANE, as well as support for parallel-port scanners. You should be able to find some mention of it in the mailing list archives at "http://www.mostang.com/sane/";. What you *could* do is scan with Windows, and then import the files to Linux via Samba... Sincerely, Ray Ingles (248) 377-7735 [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Is knowledge knowable?
