If you are running Win'95 you may have a bit of a problem.
If the scanners firmware revision is 2.6 (or less) the VS211_1.ZIP
(Vista Scan) drivers do not seem to support the UC630.  The VistaScan
"Scanner Test" doesl work, but other programs report that "The current
driver does not support the scanner attached to the computer" or some
such . I have spoken with UMax support and they thought my 2.6
firmware was the problem (but they weren't ABSOLUTLE sure). I'm
getting an updated chip (2.8 I think they said) and then we'll see.
Under 3.1+ the drivers on their bbs did support my revisions 2.6  and
I was using files 118_1.zip and 118_2.zip. Another post here suggests
even later (SU120_1.EXE   v1.20??) drivers are available.
Good luck and let me know how you fare.
