That feeling when you need to use a scanner for the first time on your linux system, and it just works.

Controlling a scanner from the command line is its own reward.

I've solved such kind of problems by buying a MFP that can save scanned data in various file types over SMB.

It could also do FTP or E-Mail it, but sadly no NFS support.

No more fiddling with devices that lack driver support for any system.
