Anyone know if scanners are working in Linux yet? As I recall, USB

The good all-in-one fax/scanner/printers will email the fax to your
email address so there is no need for special Linux scanner support. I
really like those. I recently used a Brother brand fax/scanner/printer
and it worked well and emailed me the scans.
This is very unclear. Faxes are not inbound-only nor outbound-only.
With a regular fax machine, inbound faxes use the printer side, while
outbound faxes use the scanner side.
Now, with the machine to which you refer, how can you send a fax of a
document in your hand without using the scanner side? How is email
going to help with this?
