Summary ======= I would like to attach a scanner to my desktop NT system. *But*, HP says that NT is not supported for any of their scanners. Has anyone had luck installing an HP, or other, scanner on NT? Detail ====== I have a 200 MHz Pentium Pro Intel Aurora (Bors) running NT 3.51 under my desk. I also have a Pentium 150 (Percival) running Win 3.1 under my desk. I have a LaserJet 4P attached to my Pentium Pro system. I would like to connect a flat scanner (not a sheet-feed - although I'll take a sheet-feed if nothing else is around (I want a flat scanner so that I can scan the odd page out of a book, and/or have an auto-feeder)) to the same computer as my printer, so that I can take advantage of the "photo-copier" features of so much scanner software. Unfortunately, HP Tech Support informs me that no HP scanners are supported on NT. For that matter, no HP printers are supported on NT either. I am wondering where to get NT drivers, etc., for my scanner of choice - an HP ScanJet 4c - or other scanners. I am also wondering if the standard OCR, photocopier, etc. software will run on NT. Any help appreciated.
