Hi all,

a week ago my brother asked me wheter i can install Linux on his computer :D

Well, i installed it for him beside his win2k. But I have still some questions. I never had a digital camera or a printer, so i never spent a thought in this category. Now I wanted to ask you how I can set up his printer, digicam and scanner or if you can give me a link to a good guide.

Some informations:

Digicam is a Casio Exilim, connected to a usb port.
The scanner is a Bearpaw 2400TA, also connected to usb.
And at last, his printer, is connected to the paralell port.

Would be nice if you could help me.
