this is a mailing list for using scanners under
linux/unix/OSX. if you are 
looking for windows drivers, this is not the place.

Well, actually this is not entirely true insofar as most
SANE 
drivers should work fine on Windows when compiled against
cygwin.

However I agree that probably the simplest route for getting
a scanner 
working under Windows would be to search the website of the
manufacturer 
and look for the manufacturer's driver to download.  If the
manufacturer's 
site is down then a google search on "artec scanner
driver download" 
turned up planty of hits (I didn't try them!).

cheers,
Jon

Hi Dave

Iexplorer?   Does that mean you're running Windows?   If so,
I'm afraid  this 
is the wrong list, because this is a list for users of Sane,
which is a 
scanner program that (so far as I know) runs on Linux/Unix,
MacOS X, even 
OS/2, but not Windows.   Sane is an application supplied
with most Linux 
distributions and just needs the little 8k file I mentioned
from the Artec 
CD. 

To run the scanner under Windows you may need much more than
that, you 
probably do need the Artec CD  (unless Windows XP has a
general-purpose 
scanner driver already built in, it may do, I just don't
know).

I'm sorry I can't be more informative, I haven't run Windows
since W98.    All 
I can suggest is Googling for "Artec 48u under XP"
 (or whatever your version 
of Windows is).   

(You're right, btw, about the file being hard to download,
it seems to depend 
on browser settings or which browser you're using.   I'll
try and fix that, 
but I'm afraid it won't be the answer to your problem).

Regards

cr
