I aquired HPscanjet 9190A.
I have the flatbed scanner and the cable but, I do not know if there is
an additional interface needed for PC or? use. the cable looks like
parallel printer cable. Any info may help.

I have a microchannel card for a PS/2 that's supposedly the controller card
for a HP scanner. It has the 25 pin d-sub connector on it. Didn't you say
you had a microchannel model PS/2?? You're welcome to this card if you
think it will work for you. Drop me a direct email if so.

Allison, from an earlier Usenet post:
I have a Hewlett Packard Scanjet Plus without any
docs, etc.. I was able
to get very little info from the "hp" ftp site on this unit. It has what
looks like a standard parallel port 36-pin connector on it, but from what
I can tell, it is a "special" interface - NOT SCSI. I guess hp carries
It's a custom duplex centronics interface, developed by HP, and used (in
slightly different versions) only on the 9190A ScanJet and 9195A ScanJet
Plus. The ScanJet version was product number 88290A, which presumably
works only on the 9190A. The Plus card was 88295A or 88296A, and
reportedly works on both. They were developed years before
ECP/EPP/IEEE-1284, so a normal PC parallel port is no substitute. The
later ScanJets (IIc, IIcx, 2p, 3p) have a McSCSI interface.

yeah, the HP scanjets all(?) come with their own scsi interface card,
that has basically a DB-25 plug that connects to the scanner. however,
if you have any 50pin centronics to scsi, you can use that just fine
too; more or less, HP distributed the interface card because most PC
owners don't tend to have SCSI :)
PS. I have some cards & HP deskscan software from a couple units i
picked up, email if interested. yadda, yadda, yadda...

Yes there is a card you need to place inside your machine and software. You
can still download the software from HPO's site. Good luck on the interface
card. John
