[OPLINLIST] Scanners

[Bob Neeper]

In Jan 2008 we installed a donated scanner for Patron use at one of the 
DeepFreezed XP PC’s.
The scanner buttons do not function.

Also installed Picasa

Instructions are:
Use the “Picasa2 Scanner” desktop icon to run Picasa.
Click “Import” then “Select Device” to begin.

It is not used that much but seems to work.

We also put another donated scanner on an openSUSE PC in the staff area.
Then use Kooka to scan the image.
Works fine.
