Hi Gene,

No the HP1100 is not an all in one device which is why it so frustrating for 
me that Sane sees it and not the real scanner. I know the termination is good 
because all my JAZ drives work. BTW the C6520 has a form feeder installed 
which is why i would like to get it working.

Cheers

Richard
