Hi,

I have never written a device driver before and am thinking my unsupported
scanner might be a good place to start. The problem is the company that
made my scanner is probably out of business. 

The company is Scanpaq, Inc. 
It is a scanport parallel port TWAIN scanner. Will I be able to work
without specific hardware information about the scanner? Is TWAIN a
general purpose API? 

If you think it is possible what is a good roadmap of resources to get
started. For instance I have the O'Rreilly Linux Device Driver book. Are
there good resources about writing drives for the parallel port and
scanners? Then I'll need to integrate with SANE, correct? 

Thanks,
washu
