Found this http://www.sane-project.org/sane-mfgs.html very useful when looking for a second hand scanner which would work with linux.
Ended up with a canon LIDE 210 which works a dream usb cable powered and lightening fast.
Regrettably my old A3 scanner did not work under linux. Newer models apparently do.

Hello!
Hmm... I thought I had already replied to this.
The Canon LIDE scanners are what I use here. They're about the only USB scanners that don't require a separate power supply - they are powered through the USB bus...
