Windows 2K and scanner

Channel Hopper

Anyone know of a generic driver and inf file to allow the office PC (recently upgraded to Winsows 2000) to run with a Scanner (Boeder Artiscan 4800) running through the parallel printer port

Th PC doesont recognise anything connected and Boeder (Also ArtecUSA ) sites have closed down

Ive been almost everywhere on the net today and its doing my head in , joined thouseands of sites offering drivers, nobody it seems has one

Thanks, but that site charges for everything at nearly $5 per download

I will continue to network between the Laptop with Win 98 and the PC for now

Thanks anyway

I had a good look around yesterday at all the Boeder sites and on one forum they said that a Win2000 driver was never produced which I think CH knows. I did see one which said there was a Windows NT for CH's model and wondered whether that might just work.
