I see on the VueScan page that it supports the HP 5200C. I purchased my
5100c in Canada, and I'm wondering if it is the Canadian version twin to HP
5100c. Also does the VueScan software include drivers? I'm asking because
I recently bought a new computer with XP home. There are no drivers
available from HP for my scanner for XP.

thanks, Ivan

I read here that the HP 5200c drivers work with the 5100c in XP

The HP 5100C uses a parallel-port interface, and VueScan doesn't
work with any parallel-port scanners.

Thank you.
