I would like to have some suggestion about what adapter to buy (if possible USB, so that I can use it on different computers) to make the Spectroscan and the Spectrolino work.
Hi, I've tested the Keyspan USA-19HS on some MSWin systems (Win2K), but their support for this product seems to have deteriorated, and I couldn't get it to run reliably on WinXP (the driver seemed to crash when you did something like unplug it). The Keyspan might still be OK on Mac systems. I've also tested a cheaper "no name" USB to serial (Called a "GUC-AD9" if that's any help, USB VID 067B, PID 2303), that uses the Prolific USB-Serial chip. It's called the "PL2303" on the Prolific.com.tw website. I've successfully used this on Win7 64 bit with the DTP92, so it should work with the Spectrolino. On my latest system I installed a PCIe serial/parallel card in order to have a serial port on my system. Graeme Gill.
