What to do to connect SCSI card (scanner) to USB ?

Tall Paul is correct.

You can get at SCSI-to-USB adapter/connector but it will cost as much as a new USB enabled scanner.

You can get a SCSI PCMCIA card but that will cost you about 1/2 or as much as the USB scanner, too.

Maybe it's time to upgrade your scanner.

I agree with Tall Paul, it's going to cost more than the scanner is worth.

But if you want to try it yourself (if you have the knowledge and the skills), the easiest and cheapest way is to buy an USB parallel printer port and do the adaptation from that to SCSI (if it's an 8 bit SCSI).

seek eBay for an SCSI card to your laptop, yet attempt to google somewhat in the previous procuring to be sure if there is any drivers for it. Many enjoying cards won't paintings with extra present day machines. i've got study particularly some undesirable issues approximately SCSI to USB adapters, some paintings others do no longer and it quite is a crap shoot to be sure if one works for you or no longer, i might keep away from it if plausible. you additionally can call a community laptop save. you have seen the type, it is not a container shop like best purchase yet rather run with the aid of a community individual who fixes previous machines. in case you call that is each and every now and then stated 'Scuzzy'. i've got pronounced as inquiring for an SCSI cord in the previous and that they did no longer understand what it exchange into till I reported Scuzzy. in case you hit upon this all to lots to preserve you are able to seem right into a used Plustek action picture scanner once you're scanning action picture or very just about the different flatbed scanner once you're scanning prints. yet another determination could be the Epson V500 or V600 that's an low value USB flatbed scanner that still does a very first rate activity with action picture/slides.

It can be done *but* a SCSI to USB adapter is more expensive than a new USB scanner.

Alternative is to find a PCMCIA SCSI card. Again, probably more expensive than a USB scanner.

I use an USB to SCSI adapter (an adaptec one) and is working very well.
