Check what SCSI device ID the scanner is set to; in the SCSI world it was
typical to have the *controller* set to ID 7, but I have a feeling Apple
were different and sometimes (often / always, even?) set their controller
to ID 6 - which means there's a chance your scanner's set to 7 and is
conflicting with the PC's controller.

I can say that the SCSI ID doesn't clash with the controller - first thing I
checked.

I may have mis-spoken about the number of pins.
The SCSI card has the same number of pins on the D connector as the scanner,
so it is probably 50.
Can't find the email trail where I sorted this out.

Should be getting all the bits next Monday so I'll be able to supply more
info then.

Thanks to all for the help so far.

Cheers
