Do I need a linux driver for my Ambir Scanner to run on a linux based thin client device such as a HP thin client or a WYSE device?

You do not need a Linux driver for scanner to run on these HP thin clients or WYSE thin clients.

We recommend that you follow these steps to get your Ambir scanner running:

  1. Install the scanner driver on the Windows server.
  2. Enable USB redirection (or USB passthrough) on your thin client per the instructions from your thin client hardware provider.
  3. Connect your scanner to your thin client.
  4. Through the Windows virtual session, scan via the application on the Windows server.
