USB to ethernet adapter...for scanner?

[artoodeeto]

Hey guys, no idea if there's anything out there like this, but I have an Epson GT-15000 scanner that I'd love to hook up on my network (currently it's USB). I don't think Epson makes the NIC card for that scanner anymore, and it was around $350 anyway, but I've been wondering if there's a USB to ethernet adapter that'd work? I'm kinda thinking no, but thought I'd toss the question out there before giving up on it. Thanks!

Yeah, I'd go for something like that Belkin. There are other ones out there that are cheaper though, I think.

awesome, you guys read my mind. I'd initially thought of a hub that's hook-able to a network, then got distracted and forgot about it before posting. :) typical day for me...
