Thanks Peter, This is just what I'm looking for. I knew there must have
been one somewhere since the HP ScanJet Plus is a proven supported
scanner according to the man page.
(It doesn't make sense to have a scanner fully supported
acording to the docs, and then not already have a driver available thus
requiring each HP ScanJet + user to write a new driver from scratch!)

Thanks again Peter,
Russ.
