And the fact that I don't have a terminator on the scanner might

Isn't the Snapscan internally terminated ? ie only has a single 25 pin
data socket.

Nope; it has 2 sockets, and no termination switches that I can see, so
I'm ASSuming it's unterminated. (Most SCSI devices like this have two
sockets for daisy-chaining.)

With the cable as short as possible and no other devices, that can work
acceptably (FSVO "acceptably"). Anything more than a terminated
controller at the other end and all bets are off. Add a terminator,
preferably active, and it might even be trustworthy.
