NAME
sane-nec - SANE backend for NEC scanners
DESCRIPTION
The sane-nec library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy)
backend that provides access to NEC SCSI scanners. This backend should
be considered alpha-quality software! In the current state it is known
to work with PC-IN500/4C scanners. Another MultiReader scanner series
is not supported. PC-IN 500/4C and MultiReader scanner are only sold in
Japan.(except Multi Reader PetiScan.)
For other scanners, it may or may not work.
The backend has the following known problems:
- ColorLineart mode is not supported.
- device name is fixed to /dev/scanner
At present, the following scanners are known to work with this backend.
Vendor Product id
------ -----------
NEC PC-IN500/4C
FILES
/etc/sane.d/nec.conf
The backend configuration file.
/usr/lib/arch_triplet/sane/libsane-nec.a
The static library implementing this backend.
/usr/lib/arch_triplet/sane/libsane-nec.so
The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems
that support dynamic loading).
ENVIRONMENT
SANE_DEBUG_NEC
If the library was compiled with debug support enabled, this
environment variable controls the debug level for this backend.
E.g., a value of 128 requests all debug output to be printed.
Smaller levels reduce verbosity.
