I'm told that the Scanjet II's SCSI interface is non-standard (it's
supposed to be SCSI-I), which causes most regular SCSI drivers to fail.

You may have to contact HP and get a ScanJet II driver in source form
from them. Try posting something in comp.sys.hp about this and see if
anyone there has any suggestions..
