I have a Plustek Optic Pro 4830P and seek driver for XP.
Plustek web page seems to indicate driver for 4830p doesn't support XP -
This I can't believe.
Any advice?
Thanks,
John

Believe it!
The scanner is before the time of Windows XP.
If you can find a Windows 2000 driver, try that.

There may be a Windows 2000 driver here. German site.

Downloaded and installed file called 4831p-e.exe understood that that might
work. Get as far as scantest showing scanner is recognised etc but can't
scan anything.
Any further advice would be welcome.

Looks like Plustek Inc said it pretty clear in their email. The scanner is
too old, time to buy a new scanner.
