WANTED: Agfa Scanners.  I'm not too familiar with these, other than
knowing that I have some software for one of my computer systems that
requires one, and this is the only type of scanner that can be used
with this system.  More specifically, the type of Agfa Scanner(s)
needed are ones that will use a serial interface (do they all use a
serial interface, or only certain models?).

I'm not sure exactly which model (if more than one model was made)
that I need, so any information on various models of Agfa Scanners
would be appreciated.

Specifically, the scanners needed are the type that were used with
PERQ graphics workstations with the IDOCs software from IGLOO
Software (this included the programs AgfaScanner, Mint, Capri, etc.).
The scanner plugged into the serial port.

Thanks in advance for any information pertaining to these scanners! :-)
