Subject: ScanPort SQ-1030 scanner and Linux?
I was given a ScanPort SQ-1030 scanner (parallel port).  It comes with
WinDoze software.  Their tech support line is always busy, so I can't
get through to ask if they have Linux support.  I looked at
http://www.vividata.com/scanshop.html, places linked from the SANE
page (http://www.mostang.com/sane/) and DejaNews, and didn't find
anything.

Do you know of any software to support ScanPort scanners, in particular
ScanPort SQ-1030?

Please send an e-mail copy of your posting to me.  My news server seems
to capture only 50-75% of the news articles.

You might want to try the Windows emulator Wine, www.winehq.com.
But be warned that it might not work, as the scanner might use VxDs.
Problems --> comp.emulators.ms-windows.wine
