The UMAX VISTA series can use the (much better) MagicScan. But if you want,
you can run the bundled VistaScan software. Envisions ENV8800S is a rebadged
VISTA S8.
HP does not support hardware over 10 years old, and Internet Archive blocks
access to the period HP support site.

If you are installing your UMAX scanner without the "UDS-11" card, you can
choose to install MagicScan / VistaScan using the Adaptec WinASPI layer.

Ed. I bought a Envisions ENV8800S as my first
scanner, and all of the early image capture was done on it, then edited using
PhotoShop 4. HP SCSI scanners of the ScanJet 6100 class are very well built,
but the bundled software sucks.
