Help with Scanace 1236p and Ubuntu 7.04

[Scott Ehrlich]

I was given a scanace 1236p parallel port scanner as a gift a while back 
which worked well under Win 2000.   I haven't used the scanner in several 
years and have since installed Ubuntu 7.04.   Pacific Image, the maker (or 
labeller of the scanner), no longer wants anything to do with flatbed 
scanners, including offering any drivers for it.

I've learned, through various web sites, this scanner appears to have 
different brand names, so people on the list might have it working with a 
different company's name.

I've been fussing with [x]sane and plustek drivers under 7.04 and just 
cannot get the scanner to be recognized.

I'd appreciate any help in getting the scanner working again.  xsane keeps 
saying no scanner can be found, which is likely true, if I can just get 
driver support integrated!

Thanks for any help you can offer.
