OK, here's the scoop on the original Scanmaster, not some lame-o PC-attached
crud...

8815 SCANMASTER I - WITHDRAWN
                            (NO LONGER AVAILABLE)

                                   PURPOSE

o For capturing and transmitting noncoded documents to an 4300, S/370,
    303X, or 308X system.
o For capturing and transmitting noncoded documents directly to another
Scanmaster I.
o For printing noncoded documents.
o For printing formatted text documents.

The Scanmaster I is an SNA/SDLC device designed for system-attached
operation and terminal-to-terminal operation. It attaches to 4300, S/370,
303X, and 308X processors over switched or nonswitched communication
facilities at speeds up to 9600 bps. It will communicate directly with
another remote Scanmaster I over a public switched telephone network or
private switched or non-switched voice facilities at speeds up to 9600 bps.

I got that from the IBM sales manual... I'd love to have one too..
