There is a scanner howto for Ubuntu (see here). Then I thought: “Hey, let’s try it under Linux too!” And you know what? It worked! :) Here is what to do. In the forums I read that Artec didn’t make a Windows 7 driver for this model. I was looking for it everywhere but I didn’t find it.

The installation of the driver went smoothly but when I opened the application and clicked on “Scan”, it told me that a Twain driver is missing. On the installation CD there is a SETUP.EXE that I opened in Windows XP compatibility mode. I only have Windows 7 and Linux, so first I tried to use it under Windows 7. The official driver for this model is up to Windows XP. (The exact text I have on its box: Artec e+ Pro Scanner, 1200×2400 dpi, 48 bits true color quality). I found it a few weeks ago and today I wanted to use it. I have an Artec e+ Pro scanner that I used years ago under Windows XP without any problem.
