My HP Scanjet 3970 is on its way out ..... I would like to replace
with another HP and I have just been comparing the HP Scanjet current
models (from the HP site) with what is and what is not supported in
Sane. It appears that more or less everything is not supported. This
I find very surprising and so I was wondering if I had missed the
point somewhere?
I would like to use either a Scanjet G4010 or a G4050 but since both
are unsupported (in common with the rest of the current scanners) I am
very reluctant to buy and see what happens.
Could anyone please tell me if I have got this wrong or is there
another way round this?

Did you check the <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.hplip.org">www.hplip.org</a> site for the sane hpaio backend
supported scanners?
Thank you for the suggestion, I cannot find that site, no dns entry, but
I have just taken a look here
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://hplip.sourceforge.net/">http://hplip.sourceforge.net/</a>
but that seems to be relating to printers and printers which have scanners
integrated. If you click to look at single function scanners a pop-up
appears suggesting that you look at the Sane site ....... :)

well, if sane support is important to you, then why not pick another brand...

HP is the only brand in the market here (Chiang Mai, Thailand). There
are others of course but they are at the total junk status. HP is the
only company with anything credible ...........<br>
<br>
Perhaps I should try and get a replacement board for my 3970 instead
..... wonder if they are still stocked ...<br>
