jduteau Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Has anyone tried to get a scanner working in OSx86? I have a Canon Lide35 and tried installing the drivers from Canon and that crashed the machine. I'd like to know if there's some other way of getting scanning working in OSx86.

jchowland Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 I've tried the HP software (Officejet 9110), and i'll start scanning, but will just abort and quit.

mcCoy Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 these epson scanners should work, DON'T INSTALL ANY SOFTWARE DELIVERED with the scanners! drivers written for ppc-maschines won't work. these epson scanners are supported natively by the OS, just plug them in, start "Image Capture, and there you go... -rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 7K Mar 17 23:34 CC550L.icns -rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 7K Mar 17

mcCoy Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 cd /Library/Image\ Capture/Devices/EPSON\ Scanner.app/Contents/Resources/ here they are (at least on my G4, pc-mac is down at the moment) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/643-scanners-in-osx86/#findComment-4247 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jduteau Posted August 20, 2005 Author Share Posted August 20, 2005 Okay, on my install, i don't have that dir. I have /Library/Image Capture/Devices/Type1Scanner.app. I wonder if it would work if you zipped up the EPSON scanner dir and I tried running it. I also wonder if there are other scanners besides EPSON supported. Interesting...

docangle Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 I Have had no problem with my HP PSC-2510 All-in-one printer/scanner/fax, I did not use the disc, but donwloaded the drivers from HP's site, and I can scan and print with no issues(except I cannot fax from within OSX, but this is the same with my Mac Mini, HP has not updated the drivers.)
