Hi Rick,
 
The burner will be no problem at all. I've got a HP 9100 here on RedHat and it's been faultless.
 
I've also got a FB630U at home but have never connected it to a Linux machine. I don't imagine there'd be too many problems, I'll plug it in and see what happens though.

Subject: [SLUG] An "embronic" Linux user

 
Hello SLUG members
 
Mary from the SLUG Committee has referred me to your web page.
The Linux Journey is just beginning for me so please excuse my very BASIC question(s).-:)
 
My question to the SLUG Committee was...
I am seriously looking at installing LINUX as my operating system. My problem is that I have an HP 9100I lynx burner/writer, and a Canon FB630U scanner.
I have been told by both HP and Canon that they do not support Linux with drivers for their products, and that there may be "third parties" that do...very helpful!!!!
So what I would appreciate is some information if possible on what to do and where to go...
My need is for executable drivers and utilities not as raw code as I am not a programmer (in any sense of the word!).
 
Also I would appreciate some information on Subscribing to SLUG...thanks
 
Thanks for your help.
 
Rick Davey
