Reverse Engineering the Epson FilmScan 200 for Classic Mac

How I wrote a SCSI driver from scratch to scan 35mm film on a Mac SE/30 running System 7 The Problem I shoot and develop 35mm film at home. It’s a nice hobby, and I do my own prints in a small darkroom. But sometimes I want digital copies to share online or just to archive. A while ago I found an Epson FilmScan 200 on leboncoin (the French Craigslist) for 10 euros. It’s a dedicated 35mm film scanner from 1997 that scans at 1200 DPI optical. At that price, worth a try.
