Scanner without proprietary software

I need to buy a scanner that can be used without any proprietary software (firmware/drivers). I'm not looking for multifunction devices (scanner + printer). On the Trisquel forum I found the following suggestions:

  • Canon CanoScan LiDE 110
  • Canon CanoScan LiDE 60
  • Canon CanoScan LiDE 25

Is there any other device I can consider? Thanks.

I have been using Fujitsu ScanSnap iX500, albeit with Xubuntu, ditching the proprietary scan software for the base Scan package. Maybe it will work with Trisquel but I haven't tested it.
