Generally speaking the driver status refers to the quality and
comprehensiveness of the scanner driver. It does *not* refer to
how easy it is to setup. As such it means in this instance that once
setup your 2700F will function correctly giving good scans in all
modes, and all or nearly all the features of the scanner supported.

Most of your problems seem to stem from using an ancient and decrepit
ISA SCSI card. I strongly suspect that if you where using a PCI
SCSI card you would have a much easier time.
