[sane-devel] Wanted Linux scanner...

Can anyone recommend a scanner that runs with Linux?

We had an HP6300 SCSI scanner that worked PERFECTLY with Red Hat 9 out 
of the box using xsane, but it has failed and HP are no longer repairing 
them. We need a high quality unit with high scanning speed.

I have been to:

http://www.sane-project.org/sane-mfgs.html

but all the compatible scanners listed are on longer available. I have 
rung HP, but in spite of their crowing about how they are now supporting 
Linux in a big way, they apparently don't have anything.

Can anyone offer any advice?

Regards,
Brad
