I kinda doubt that even the old HP scanners had schematics available.
However, the operation of a scanner is not too complex to reverse
engineer.
I guess that we still can't get you to accept one, even for free, without
open hardware source.
Would you also
like some early Pentium machines, a Beseler enlarger and a
Pentium machines cannot
be early :-)
"dichroic" head, a Kodak Caramate, some printers and monitors, ...?
As
for the enlarger, I have enough problems hosuing my DeVere 504.... Howabout: a
Fujinon holography camera?
'course it's all 60Hz stuff.
Does it _depend_ on the mains frequency?
Votlage conversion is trivial (I
have a 110V step-down transformer in the workshop anyway), frequency
conversion can be more of an 'interesting' job.
