2002-05-07 Thread Rob Ward
I got this from HP after querying them about the HP4470c... So can someone in the US contact US technical support. I doubt New Zealand support will be much help. If no-one can do that, I can try from NZ. TIA. :-) Rob Hello Rob, Thank you for contacting HP's Customer Care e-mail sup

I have written to HP... Hi. HP have been kind to the Linux community in the past. I am wondering if I could get in contact with a technical person to find out about the possibility of the Linux community developing drivers for this scanner. We need basic information like the scanners c

I can't read web pages in my mail (especially not over this tiny link) and I'm sure I'm not alone so please send plain text when communicating with the list. If it doesn't already it would be nice if the joining message for this list warned users not to send HTML mail. Nick.
