Hp scanjet 3400 c

[Perry_11]

I would like to know when Hp is going to give support to the scanjet 3400 c in windows 2003 server or when they are going release the driver respective to this OS

The only thing I can find per today is for Windows XP

Have you tested that this does not work in Win2K3?

Personally I would not run a ScanJet off a 2003 Server unless it was a strict home-network, in which case Win2K3 server compared to WinXP seems to be an 'overkill'...

Also be aware that Win2K3 server is "locked down" by default, so you need to know your way around computer- and group-policies to enable much of the functionality you take for granted in WinXP/Win2K.



Cheers,

Scratch my last answer, I found a better one:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;317524

It says in this document that the ScanJet 3400c is one of the scanners:

"...that are supported by Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) in Windows Server 2003. These scanners have WIA device drivers that are, or that will soon be, included in Windows Server 2003. "

As Win2K3 isn't officially released until 24.th of april (isn't that the date?) I guess this is as much information as one can get regarding this...


Cheers,

Perry,

Since Win 2003 server is based from XP, I have been using XP drivers with good results for any devices requiring drivers not on the RC2 CD.

See Rune's postings for links.

Thats ok, but my scanner does work so good, it seems to be well installed, although it appears in My Computer it doesn??t work it always: "SCANNER SOFTWARE CAN NOT BE FOUND, OR YOUR SCANNER IS NOT CONNECTED" I HAVE INSTALLED IT VIA PARALLEL PORT 'TILL USB PORT, BUT IT STILL DOESN'T WORK, THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.
