Does anyone have an HP SCSI Scanner?

[SteveC]

If so, you just HAVE to do this:

Turn off Scanner,
Set SCSI ID to 0,
Hold in green 'Scan' button on front of scanner,
Turn on Scanner,

Sit back and listen! Now, who can tell me what the tune is?

EDIT: Had SCSI ID wrong...

I have an old HP Scanjet 4P SCSI scanner.
But there is no "scan" button on the front of it. Only a power switch towards the rear.

Guess I don't get to listen to the tune

We want a link to a wave file, SteveC!

[SteveC]

Mine's only a Scanjet 5P....

Anyways, I'll see if I can sort out a download for y'all later today.

SO is this like an HP "Easter Egg?"

[SteveC]

OK, he you go:

it's a bit quiet so you might need to turn your speakers up a notch or three. Also, it turns black and white half way through for some reason....

EDIT: And PS: That' file is ~4mb

Pretty cool, Ive got a cash machine near me (HSBC) and it sounds like the theme from ipanema (Doctor Zhivago)

Steve, you just gave the the biggest smile I've had in weeks!

I wish I knew how to get my HP scanner to do that...

I'm no music expert but I think it's "An Ode to Joy", http://www.bachfaq.org/odetojoy.html
