Linux - Sane - Epson V300 Photo
Sunday, 08 November 2009 22:40
Since my Umax Astra 2200 SCSI/USB scanner gave up on his duty, I was searching for a worthy successor.
And finally I found one...

 

To all those scanner seeking Linux users:
Epson Perfection V300 Photo works like a charm!
It's supported via the sane epkowa backend.

 

For the Gentoo Linux users, just emerge
and the scanner works flawless with Xsane, Iscan and skanlite

 

One drawback:
The buttons are not working and for now I had no time to look into this, but a working "copy" Button would be nice :-)
