Pretty much.  It was like the only one they did like this.  There's
a model number, but I'm at work right now and can't look at the
device to get it for you.

Yeah.  I noticed it didn't list this device as supported.  I'll
give both or them a try ASAP.  The reason I mentioned/asked about
HP ScanJet IIcx compability is I wasn't able to get that to work
under Windows NT/2k.  So I question the compatibility, but it
is said to exist (according to the on-line docs).
