Driver needed for Scanner
Guinness - 8/11/06 at 10:05 PM

Can anyone help me out? I have an old flat bed usb scanner that I got with my old Tiny system, back in the dark ages. It's badged as a Tiny, but the code underneath says it's a Primax FU318D.

I have tried googling that, and it comes up with loads of sites, none of which I trust to download anything off!

Looks like the only drivers available are for win 98 or me, so you might just have to buy a new one!

They arent expensive, my canon one was only £50 (on special offer - end of line) and the results from it are exceptional. Keep an eye out for an out of date model, and you can get an excellent spec one for very little money.

Hi, Go here http://members.driverguide.com/driver/detail.php?driverid=113398

You will have to create an account but it is free, download the file from about half way down page on right.

hi
is it a usb or a parallel scanner ?
if usb then there is a good chance just plugging it in, it may work
IIRC xp doesnt really support parallel scanners
(assuming you are now running xp of course )

Might be worth trying these:
http://www.scanner-drivers.com/drivers/53/53324.htm

as this link claims they are the same
http://www.scanner-drivers.com/drivers/113/113398.htm

Never used a driver from there so virus checker required.
