The original SCSI host adapter that shipped with the scanner (Adaptec 1502E) was incompatable,but after replacing it (Adaptec 2906) its been no problem.

I have had one of these scanners since 1996, and it has always performed admirably for me. Back when I first bought it, everything that was coming out at the time were parallel port driven scanners, and they were slow.

This blew them all away, and the price point for it was wonderful.

Yes, it originally came with an Adaptec 1502E card, which was a really poor adapter (ISA based), but over the years I have upgraded machines and SCSI cards, and the progression has never had any trouble with this scanner.
