Yes, low power being the operative word. Obviously, you scanner does not fall under the low-power category (such large items rarely do) or else you wouldn't be receiving the low power warnings.
You are either going to have to plug the scanner directly into a USB port or you'll need to acquire a SELF POWERED (read; has it's own power cord) hub in order to use this device. ~Rob > I have just "installed" my Gyration wireless keyboard/mouse.
