    I used wine to debug my scanner. I don't know how the parallel port system
    works with win32, but in the case of SCSI, it was rather efficient. You
    would not have to hack with a dual parallel card, just modify a little bit the
    parallel driver in wine to dump everything to a file.
    If you can have your scanner driver to work with wine, it's all good.
