Is vuescan not a safer choice? Epson, canon and hp software tend to do automatic updates and may choose to brick your device if you use the wrong ink. They also tend to collect data unless you carefully fight every setting. Why even expose yourself to that? I only biy oki and brother printers for this reason - fine tech without the evil.

It’s a document scanner. Not much ink in there ;) And haven’t seen any data connection when scanning.

Ok true for a pure scanner these might indeed be fine. Too few ways for the manufactured to additionally fleece you :-)
