							|  |  |  | library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend which | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | provides access to Kodak aio printer / scanners, like the ESP and Hero series. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | This document describes backend version 2.4, which is the first candidate for | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | incorporation in sane-backends. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | .SH SUPPORTED HARDWARE | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | This version should support models of the Kodak ESP and Hero series, and possibly some | 
					
						
							| 
									
										
										
										
											2017-05-27 05:27:22 +00:00
										 |  |  | Advent AiO scanners. The ESP 5250 and Hero 9.1 were used to develop the backend, | 
					
						
							| 
									
										
										
										
											2012-07-01 01:28:14 +00:00
										 |  |  | but other models may work. Please see the desc file. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							| 
									
										
										
										
											2017-05-27 05:27:22 +00:00
										 |  |  | If you have a model not on that list, or reported as 'untested': the best way | 
					
						
							| 
									
										
										
										
											2012-07-01 01:28:14 +00:00
										 |  |  | to determine level of support is to test the scanner directly. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | .SH CONFIGURATION FILE | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | The configuration file "kodakaio.conf" is used to tell the backend how to look | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | for scanners, and provide options controlling the operation of the backend. | 
					
						
							| 
									
										
										
										
											2017-05-27 05:27:22 +00:00
										 |  |  | This file is read each time the frontend asks the backend for a list | 
					
						
							| 
									
										
										
										
											2012-07-01 01:28:14 +00:00
										 |  |  | of scanners, generally only when the frontend starts. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | .SH ENVIRONMENT | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | The backend uses a single environment variable, SANE_DEBUG_KODAKAIO, which | 
					
						
							| 
									
										
										
										
											2017-05-27 05:27:22 +00:00
										 |  |  | enables debugging output to stderr. |

							| 
									
										
										
										
											2017-05-27 05:27:22 +00:00
										 |  |  | Most hardware options are either not supported or not exposed for control by | 
					
						
							| 
									
										
										
										
											2012-07-01 01:28:14 +00:00
										 |  |  | the user, including: multifeed detection, image compression etc. |
