ON-TOPIC REPLY: You may require two separate drivers, one for the USB connection and another driver for the network connected device. And separate drivers for the printer & scanner functions. Albeit, they are sometimes bundled together by manufacturer. (ie. HP's HPLIP package)
OFF-TOPIC REPLY: I'm seeing quite a few posts for network scanners/printers. I used to use 100 Megabit network for printing some years ago, and particularly preferred networked products due to the having the device more remotely placed from the computer. (Hey, it's the UNIX/Linux world here.) Recently within the past years, I found using 100Mbit network was really just too slow, and found myself waiting for print jobs to clear the printer queue. I've since migrated to USB over the past year(s) for my printer; I just use the longest USB cord now. I have no experience with 1 Gigabit network capable printers. Speeds maybe more acceptable using Gigabit for printing, but I doubt for scanning. (For draft quality printing using an HP printer, I've even opted to use the faster PCL driver instead of PS driver.) As far as scanners, the speed will likely be exponentially affected due to the larger amounts of data. -- Roger http://rogerx.freeshell.org/ -- sane-devel mailing list: sane-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sane-devel Unsubscribe: Send mail with subject "unsubscribe your_password" to sane-devel-requ...@lists.alioth.debian.org
