An EPSOM PERFECTION 2400 PHOTO

I never found anything in linux work initially so easy.
I just plugged it in the usb2 port powered it up
went to MCC - hardwarte scanner- leftmouse clicked ,
it asked for cd1 , I gave it it, it said thank you, I
smiled inwardly, It even gave me a kstartmenu entry,
and away it went.

So far I've had a go at grey scale and colour in normal
scan docment mode(as against photo/transparency)
and it worked. I have yet to make the fine adjustments
but all looks very encouraging.

I also notice the Steppa motor is 24v, as against most
of the cheapie scanners being 12v I hope that makes
for greater reliability.

I'm always cautious to praise too loudly, somehow it
seems like tempting fate, but all the thanks goes to
those sane project people for their sterling efforts,
and, I for one, am profoundly greatful.

I just thought I would share this with you.It is always
heartening when something works withou a lot of
fuss and bother in linux.

John - iscan was necessary to run my Perfection 1650 under 8.2 - from Epson's website - but I think I'm right to say that iscan is the driver included on the 9.0 distro, so you don't need to do anything more.

That explains it, I thought the sane windows had changed a bit since I last
installed scanner software.
