I have a used hp Scanjet 5530, free to a good home.  I could bring it
tonight if anyone wants it there, or you could pick it up from me in
University City some time.

The 5530 has a photo feeder unit, but when I tried using this under
the MacOS X driver, it didn't work properly.  I suspect the feed bands
are old and not gripping properly, but I didn't debug it extensively.
I believe, but do not know for certain, that the scanner otherwise
works correctly.

I could not find a linux driver for this unit.  Mac and Win drivers
are available on hp's web site.

Reply off list please.
