You can use it as a printer. As far as I know there is no such
thing as a "postscript scanner".
The Brother all-in-ones tend to have "scan-to-network" abilities,
though, and that doesn't require a driver -- just an internal
FTP or SAMBA server to receive the files. My workplace has a
bunch of these. Walk up, select Scan, select Network, and put
your document(s) in. You get PDFs or TIFFs in your filesystem.
