Fujistu ADF scanner support?

Hi Folks,

Does anyone know which Fujistu ADF duplex scanners
work well with Sane?  I'm considering the FI-4120 or
Fi-5110EOX (Scansnap) models.  Basically, for
greyscale document archiving.

I recently purchased a used HP 7400c and am not
impressed.  The ADF unit jams and does not orient
paper correctly.  Additionally, streaks appear in the
scanned image.  It works excellent in flatbed mode.

Any insight appreciated.

Thanks,
Nick

sane support is 'good' on both models.

i think both of those models are discontinued, but if you
can get them 
cheap it might be worth it. the 4120 is usb 1.1 and scsi,
and usually 
comes with a scsi card and cable. it is a much nicer scanner
the the 5110 
series, but usb 1.1 is very slow for larger scans.

i think the 5110eox is usb2 only, and a little slower and
noisier than the 
4120, but you can actually get the data out of the scanner
with usb2 

if you have the option, the 4120c2 is usb2, and adds some
neat features 
like background color changing, i have one sitting on my
desk, so support 
is pretty good
