provides access to some Microtek scanners with a SCSI-2 command set.

This backend should be considered alpha.

This backend can be considered alpha. Some scanner models are reported to work

Additional information can be found at

|
||||
.
|
||||
If you own a Microtek scanner with SCSI-2 interface other than the ones
|
||||
listed
|
||||
above, it may or may not work with SANE! Because equal scanners are sold under
|
||||
different names in different countries your model may be equivalent to one of
|
||||
the above.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The parport scanners work with the ppscsi + onscsi kernel modules.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
If you try your scanner for the first time keep an eye on it. If it gets
|
||||
commands that it doesn't understand the scanhead may go beyond the scan area.
|
||||
The scanner then makes strange noises. In this case immedieately switch off
|
||||
the scanner or disconnect its power cable to prevent damages!
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
If your scanner is a different one than the models mentioned above and it is
|
||||
working please tell the author about it. It would be nice if you add a logfile
|
||||
to this information (creation of the logfile: see below).
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
If your scanner is not working properly you also should create a logfile and
|
||||
send it to the author. He will use the information to improve the backend and
|
||||
possibly make your scanner work.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.br
|
||||
How to create the logfile?
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
- put the line
|
||||
.br
|
||||
"option dump 2" into your
|
||||
.I microtek2.conf
|
||||
file or change the existing "option dump" to "2"
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
- in a terminal (bash) type
|
||||
.br
|
||||
"export SANE_DEBUG_MICROTEK2=30" and then
|
||||
.br
|
||||
"scanimage -l0 -t0 -x100 -y20 2>scan.log >sout.pnm"
|
||||
.br
|
||||
You get two files: scan.log contains the logfile and sout.pnm the scanned
|
||||
image (if there was scanned something). Zip them before sending.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH "FRONTEND OPTIONS"
|
||||
This backend dynamically enables the options for the frontend,
|
||||
that are supported by the scanner in dependence of the scanning-mode
|
||||
and other options. Not supported options are disabled.

.PP
|
||||
Additional options can be enabled or disabled in the
|
||||
.I microtek2.conf
|
||||
file. See the configuration section of this manpage.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH "DEVICE NAMES"
|
||||
This backend expects device names of the form:
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.RS
|
||||
.IR special
|
||||
.I special
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Where
|
||||
.I special
|
||||
is the UNIX path-name for the special device that corresponds to the
|
||||
scanner. The special device name must be a generic SCSI device or a
|
||||
symlink to such a device. Under Linux, such a device name could be
|
||||
.IR /dev/sga
|
||||
.I /dev/sga
|
||||
or
|
||||
.IR /dev/sge ,
|
||||
.I /dev/sge
|
||||
for example.
|
||||
.SH CONFIGURATION
|
||||
.SH "CONFIGURATION"
|
||||
The configuration file for this backend resides in
|
||||
.IR @CONFIGDIR@/microtek2.conf .
|
||||
.I @CONFIGDIR@/microtek2.conf
|
||||
.
|
||||
Its contents is a list of device names that correspond to Microtek
|
||||
scanners with SCSI-2 interface. Empty lines and lines starting with
|
||||
a hash mark (#) are ignored.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The configuration file may also contain options. Currently two options are
|
||||
supported:

||||
.PP

||||

|
||||

|
||||
for all devices are placed above the device names. Device-specific options
|
||||
are
|
||||
placed under the device name. Currently the following options are supported:
|
||||
.PP

||||

|
||||
is primarily useful for debugging purpose.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
enables printing of additional information about the SCSI commands that are sent to
|
||||
the scanner to stderr. This option is primarily useful for debugging purpose.
|
||||
This option has to be a global option and is best placed at the top of the
|
||||
.I microtek2.conf
|
||||
file.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
If n=1 the contents of the command blocks
|
||||
and the results for the INQUIRY and READ SCANNER ATTRIBUTES command are
|
||||
printed to stderr.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
If n=2 the contents of the command blocks for all other SCSI commands are
|
||||
printed to stderr, too. If n=3 the contents of the gamma table is
|
||||
printed, too. If n=4 all scan data is additionally printed to stderr.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The default is n=1.
|

.PP
|
||||
The
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.I option strip-height <n>
|
||||
, where <n> is a floating point number, limits the amount of data that is
|
||||
read from the scanner with one read command.
|
||||
The unit is inch and <n> defaults to 1.0,
|
||||
if this option is not set in the configuration file. If less than <n> inch
|
||||
of data fit into the SCSI buffer, then the smaller value is used and this
|
||||
option has no effect.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The unit is inch and <n> defaults to 1.0, if this option is not set in the
|
||||
configuration file. If less than <n> inch of data fit into the SCSI buffer,
|
||||
then the smaller value is used and this option has no effect.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
If your system has a big SCSI buffer and you want to make use of the whole
|
||||
buffer, increase the value for <n>. For example, if <n> is set to 14.0,
|
||||
no restrictions apply for scanners with a letter, legal or A4 sized
|
||||
scan area.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
At present the options apply to all devices in the configuration file and
|
||||
cannnot be set on a per device basis.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
no restrictions apply for scanners with a letter, legal or A4 sized scan area.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The following options enable or disable additional frontend options. If an
|
||||
option is set to <on> an appropriate option will appear in the frontend.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.I option no-backtrack-option <on/off>
|
||||
prevents the scanner head from moving backwards between the read commands.
|
||||
This
|
||||
speeds up scanning. Try it.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.I option lightlid-35 <on/off>
|
||||
If you use the LightLid-35 transparency adapter this option switches off the
|
||||
flatbed lamp during the scan.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.I option toggle-lamp <on/off>
|
||||
You get a button in the frontend where you can switch on and off the flatbed
|
||||
lamp.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.I option lineart-autoadjust <on/off>
|
||||
You can tell the backend to try to determine a good value for the lineart
|
||||
threshold.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.I option backend-calibration <on/off>
|
||||
Some scanners (e.g. Phantom 330CX and 636CX) need to have calibrated the data
|
||||
by the backend. Try this option if you see vertical stripes in your pictures.

environment variable controls the debug level for this backend. E.g.,

a value of 128 requests all debug output to be printed. Smaller
|

a value of 255 requests all debug output to be printed. Smaller

levels reduce verbosity. To see error messages on stderr set

SANE_DEBUG_MICROTEK2 to 1 (Remark: The whole debugging levels should

be better revised).
