Never did solve the parallel port pass through issue. I found a Mustek
Color PCMCIA Hand held scanner through NECX for about $187. It did the job
until some bad scanner pixels spoiled the party. Sent it back and NECX is
sending me a new one. On the good side, this scanner will scan 24 bit color
or B/W at 800 dpi. Not quite as easy as feeder style but its real
convenient to carry around. Works great with my 701C!!!
If I'd had more time I think I would have hacked around myself.
Somebody wrote me with what I believe is the answer. This person said to
de-activate everything, including the track point, and then load the
software. Once you get the parallel port device working then turn things on
one at a time. This way you'll know exactly what causes the problem.
Sounds logical.
BTW - the Easy Photo setup looks almost exactly like the Primax mobile
office and I found it for $199 at Best Buys and Micro Center.
Take Care -
