Giday,
	I have been bequeathed an APPLE Scanner. We don't have an apple
to plug it into. We have 386 + SUNS. Is there any way to get it to talk
to a pc or sun. Or should I just sell it off as a bad joke and buy one
that will work. It appears to be similar to the HP scanner is this so,
or have apple in their infinite wisdom customised the beasty beyond
reconition. I have asked APPLE about it and their reply is buy a MAC. 
It would be too much trouble to add a mac to our network just to use a
scanner. 

If you could mail me at ianm@biobris.biom.csiro.au I will summarise and
reply to the net.
 
Thanks heaps.
