Hello Alejandro, I'm pretty annoyed that when I went to download
the file at Microtek Ibelieve it was this?/ epp 264 exe.
</STRONG></P>
<P><STRONG>
</STRONG></P>
<P><STRONG>
They didn't have it available , They should at least include some
info about their hardware on a CD so that my Hardware Wizard can
setup the right driver for the Damn Scanner, someone suggested. I
try a HP scanner. I believe I will
</STRONG></P>
<P><STRONG>
Return the C3 tomorrow. It was my Christmas present it's been
nothing but a Dissapointment to me. Thank you...
</STRONG></P>
<P><STRONG>
</STRONG></P>
<P><STRONG>
If you can suggest a compatible Driver or anything else please
do. Thanks again!1
</STRONG></P>
<P><STRONG>
Sincerely, Rebecca
</STRONG></P>

Who is Alejandro?

<BLOCKQUOTE>
Rebecca, it looks like you have sent this message astray.
First I'm not Alejandro, I'm Jim Dennis. You sent this to
"<A HREF="mailto:answerguy@ssc.com">answerguy@ssc.com</A>" which is the access point to the Linux
Gazette "Answer Guy" column --- providing free technical
support (and a bit of spleen venting and curmudgeonly commentary)
for users of Linux.
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
Your message doesn't relate to Linux as far as I can see. We
don't often use ".exe" files and Linux doesn't need a "Hardware
Wizard" to find and use any of its devices (except for the
guy at the keyboard, perhaps).
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
The primary resource for supporting scanners under Linux would
be SANE (Scanner Access is Now Easy) at:
