	Hello,

	the G2410 is basically a HP2400. Work to support it in the genesys backend is 
progressing nicely currently. However, the H2400 is currently limited to 50 
dpi uncalibrated scan. Meanwhile you can use the the proprietary SANE driver 
you can get at www.elcot.in. You'll find howto install it in ubuntu forums.

Regards,
	Stef
