Re: Linux Friendly Scanner

Here's the definitive Linux scanner checklist.  Look at the "Supported
devices" link.
http://sane-project.org/

I use HP OfficeJet and HP Envy all-in-ones, and the scanners work fine
once the printer is installed.  Not a recommendation, but I don't want
to have a printer and a separate scanner for space and clutter reasons. 
I hate HP and their printers however, and will switch to another brand
next time.

I use the simple-scan software (Gnome Document Scanner).

Cheers,
Michael
