sane-leo - SANE backend for LEO Technologies scanners

|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
.B sane-leo
|
|
|
|
library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend that
|
|
|
|
provides access to some LEO SCSI flatbed scanners. This backend
|
|
|
|
should be considered
|
|
|
|
.B beta-quality
|
|
|
|
software! LEO scanners were also sold under the Across Technologies brand.

|
|
|
|
The options the backend supports can either be selected through
|
|
|
|
command line options to programs like scanimage or through GUI
|
|
|
|
elements in xscanimage or xsane.

If you have any strange behavior, please report to the backend
|
|
|
|
maintainer or to the SANE mailing list.

|
|
|
|
|

.TP
|
|
|
|
.B --mode
|
|
|

.I Color
|
|

|
The Black & White mode is black and white only (1 bit). Grayscale
|
|
|
|
will produce 256 levels of gray (8 bits). Color will produce a 24 bits
|
|
|
|
color image.

.SH CONFIGURATION FILE
|
|
|
|
The configuration file @CONFIGDIR@/leo.conf supports only one information: the device name to use (eg /dev/scanner).
|

|
|

|
.SH FILES
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
.I @LIBDIR@/libsane-leo.a
|
|
|
|
The static library implementing this backend.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
.I @LIBDIR@/libsane-leo.so
|
|
|
|
The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems that
|
|
|
|
support dynamic loading).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.SH ENVIRONMENT
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
.B SANE_DEBUG_LEO
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.SH LIMITATIONS
|
|
|
|
The windows TWAIN driver has many more options than this SANE
|
|
|
|
backend. However they are only software adjustments. This backend only
|
|
|
|
implements what the scanner can support.
