so like, the ss driver provides support for SCSI bus based document scanners. that's her whole job — document scanners on the SCSI bus get to be the main character.

shoutout to Kenneth Stailey and Joachim Koenig — icons only.

💀 BUGS 💀

real talk: only a limited number of HP Scanjet and Mustek scanners are supported. Other scanners can probably be accessed using the SCSI uk(4) driver instead. so if yours isn't in that limited HP Scanjet/Mustek crew, the SCSI uk(4) driver can probably get you in instead.

mwah 💋 — this page is from Debian, dated June 1, 2016. bye bestie! 🫶
