Hi Vikram: In most BSD/Linux distros, the support for a particular scanner is based on backend support ie. drivers from the SANE project. An indicative list of currently supported hardware is also maintained by the SANE project folks. Please see http://www.sane-project.org/sane-backends.html#SCANNERS thanks Saifi.
