I can tell you for sure the 8400F runs on a GL843 processor. I took mine apart years ago in thinking I would be able to develop a driver. I'm fairly certain I posted the entire guts of the scanner years ago. Both to this list and to other places. But like Allesandro, I haven't the time to develop one. I will however gladly test any developing 8400F drivers. I mean really test. I will even test the negatives scanner including medium format pictures and all. I would also help fine tune some parts of such a driver, if necessary. The purpose of this scanner was meant to scan and preserve very old negatives including a good number of large and medium format negatives.
