Hi all- I’m trying to get an AppleScanner (original, model A9M0337) connected and working on my Macintosh II. I have the original scanning software (1.01 and 1.02) and apple scan app, which apparently was designed for System 6.0.8. However, the Mac is running System 7.1. The scanner is in great condition, and turns on/‘moves’, and is recognized on the SCSI bus. But I need the drivers. Apparently, Scanner 2.0 or 3.0 drivers will allow the scanner to run on System 7.1. But I cannot find a working set of drivers anywhere (I downloaded a bulk drivers package from Macintoshrepository.org as .sea files, but they’re either corrupted or incomplete). I could downgrade to system 6.0.8, but wanted to see if I could get this up and running on system 7.1 first. Am I correct on any/all of this? Any suggestions would be very helpful! Thanks. John.

Just to follow up- I was able to download and install the linked file (thank you!). The ofoto app work on system 7.1, however the scanner was still not recognized (Scanner extension 3.0). I wiped the hard drive on the Mac II, and installed system 6.0.8, installed the scanner extension and software (not Scanner extension 3.0 and ofoto- they will not run on system 6.0.8), but again, the scanner was not recognized. I checked all connections and made sure the scanner powered on, green light, and at least ‘shifted’, implying that it’s mechanically functional (I may have to perform more hardware troubleshooting in light of the continual issue). No luck with scanner recognition. If anyone has a suggestion or two about scanner hardware checks, please let me know. Thanks!
