The HP Scanjet 5300C drivers are available from HP's
website for Windows, and apparently, also for MacOSX,
but unfortunately, not for mac OS9..the only way to
install that scanner in OS9 is off of the 5300c Install CD.
I have been looking for 6 months for either the OS9
drivers, or a copy of the Install CD..
Since HP has discontinued all OS9 support (at least re
new additions to their drivers downloads..i.e. if it's not on
their drivers site now, it ain't *never* gonna be), i am
desparate..i did download and use their windows drivers
for the scanner (a pretty hefty 90 meg D/L too) but as
of this week, i no longer use or have a Windows PC, so
it's a Mac or nothin'.
Since i need the scanner regularly i'm hoping someone
either has a driver or the 5300C CD they'd part with (or
trade? i've got hundreds of cd's to trade from...).
I know that there's 3rd party drivers for 30 or 40 $ but i
like the HP ones - i used to have a 4400C, of which i liked
the software, and partly for compatibility, as i have
several other HP imaging devices on the mac..
Anyone? Thanx...
