Sharing a scanner of the network

Has anyone sucessfully shared a scanner on the network. I know this is possible with some of HP's all-in-one product (most notably the HP3200) but how about other more "local" sytle scanners plugged into a newer HP Parrallel port printer server (expecially the HP300x 100baseT unit)?

Any ideas ?

Thank you very much Cindy, thats exactly what I was looking for. Unfortunatly the 6300c series does not support Netware networks directly (I need to have the MS client for MS networks installed as well as MS file/print sharing). But at least I know there are some solutions out there. Right now it looks like the HP3200 is the best solution, unfortunatly its scanner technology is sheet based and not flat bed. There are advantages to both but I was really looking for a flat bed technology, and yes your are right, the Digital Sender units look very expensive so that is not really a viable solution at the moment.

Thanks for all the help, Les
