Re: hp scanjet 3970 quality
No, I bought a new scanner. A Lexmark S405. While its software drivers are not included in Ubuntu, Lexmark does provide Linux software on their web site. Along with a few post on this board I was able to install the software. Also I use Skanlite and Pinta Image editor. I feel I can finally scan and edit without windows products. I have compared the scans between Ubuntu and Vista and they are equal. I bought the Lexmark because there was manufacturer software drivers available for Linux. I believe having manufacturer software increases the likely hood of good scans.
