I looked at the man page and info page for mknod and found no explanation for
the Major and Minor params you mention, so I'd like a bit more info before
running this and maybe **breaking** something :-)

Scanner only with no printer attached doesn't help. As far as your second
question, when you say **attach the scanner** do you mean the physical cable or
the insmod scanner command to load the driver?
