For more details on supported scanners and cameras look at the SANE website:
http://www.mostang.com/sane/sane-backends.html.
Concerning frontends (applications): Starting from SANE 1.0.4, only scanimage
is included in the package. Some of the available frontends can be found in
the separate package sane-frontends. For more information about frontends and
where to get them look at http://www.mostang.com/sane/sane-frontends.html.
Please note that the default configuration uses sane-dll as the top-level
backend. Hence it is probably a good idea to start with reading sane-dll(5).
The top-level backend is determined by the libsane.* symlinks in
/usr/local/lib/.
For SCSI scanners reading of sane-scsi(5) is recommended.
Please also read the file PROJECTS for projects that are planned or not yet
included into the SANE distribution.
If you encounter any problems with getting your device(s) recognized, try
setting the various environment variables that are available to assist in
debugging such problems. The environment variables are documented in the
relevant manual pages. For example, to get the maximum amount of debug
information when testing a Mustek scanner, set environment variables
SANE_DEBUG_DLL, SANE_DEBUG_MUSTEK, and SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_SCSI to 128 and then
invoke scanimage or whatever program you're trying to debug. For a Mustek
scanner at /dev/scanner, you might want to invoke scanimage as follows:
scanimage -d mustek:/dev/scanner -h
If this works, you could try to acquire an image with:
scanimage -d mustek:/dev/scanner >t.pnm
If you are not sure what generic SCSI device your scanner is connected to, try
the command sane-find-scanner. It is normally sufficient to invoke the
program without any arguments. Invoking this command should produce output
similar to this:
$ sane-find-scanner
sane-find-scanner: found "MUSTEK MFC-06000CZ 1.01" at device /dev/scanner
sane-find-scanner: found "MUSTEK MFC-06000CZ 1.01" at device /dev/sge
Note that sane-find-scanner will find any scanner that is connected to a SCSI
bus. It will even find scanners that are not supported at all by SANE.
There may be several causes for the following messages from the frontends:
"scanimage: no SANE devices found" or "xscanimage: no devices available.".
* Your scanner is not recognized by any backend. It is not supported.
You may ask the maintainer of your backend (see AUTHORS) or
sane-devel@mostang.com if support is planned.
* SANE can't access the device files (e.g /dev/sga). Check the permissions.
* Your backend is not listed in dll.conf (or commented out).
components, please refer to the manual page sane(7).
The tools directory contains some small programs that may be helpfull. They
are described in tools/README.
