Thanks for the answer. I will follow your advice. Looking for a similar scanner available in Poland I've found Fujitsu FI-5110C and FI-6130. Both FI-5110C http://www.fujitsu.com/global/services/computing/peripheral/scanners/product/fi5110c/ and FI-6130 http://www.fujitsu.com/global/services/computing/peripheral/scanners/product/fi6130/ are supported by the CVS version of SANE in the "complete" way. What does it means in practise? According to the producer, FI-6130 is not only faster then FI-5110C, but has also a lot of additional features. Are these features accessible from Linux or provided by MS Windows drivers and software? I will appreciate very much your comments and suggestions. Best regards Janusz -- , dr hab. Janusz S.
