sane\-artec \- SANE backend for Artec flatbed scanners
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.B sane\-artec
|
|
library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend
|
|
that provides access to Artec/Ultima SCSI flatbed scanners. At present,
|
|
the following scanners are known to work at least partially with this backend:
|
|
.PP
|

|
|
* Artec A6000C
|
|
.br
|
|
* Artec A6000C PLUS
|
|
.br
|
|
* Artec ViewStation AT3
|
|
.br
|
|
* BlackWidow BW4800SP (rebadged Artec AT3)
|

.br
|
|
* Artec ViewStation AT6

|
|
* Artec ViewStation AT12
|
|

|
|
* Artec AM12S

.SH DOCUMENTATION
|
|
|
|
|
|
.SH CONFIGURATION
|
|
|
|
The contents of the
|
|
.I artec.conf
|
|
file are a list of device names that
|
|
correspond to Artec scanners. Empty lines and lines starting with a
|
|
hash mark (#) are ignored. See
|
|
.I sane\-scsi(5)
|
|
on details of what constitutes a valid device name.
|
|
|
|
Sample file:
|
|
.br
|
|
.br
|
|
.nf
|
|
# artec.conf
|
|
#
|
|
# this is a comment.
|
|
#
|
|
# this line says search for any SCSI devices which are scanners and have
|
|
# a vendor string of 'ULTIMA'
|
|
scsi ULTIMA
|
|
#
|
|
# the next line forces the backend to assume the next scanner found has
|
|
# the specified vendor string (useful for testing rebadged models).
|
|
vendor ULTIMA
|
|
#
|
|
# the next line forces the backend to assume the next scanner found has
|
|
# the specified model string (useful for testing rebadged models).
|
|
model AT3
|
|
#
|
|
# now a line that actually specifies a device. The backend is going to
|
|
# assume this is an Artec/Ultima AT3 because we forced the vendor and
|
|
# model above.
|
|
/dev/scanner
|
|
#
|
|
# once we hit a scanner device line, the forced vendor and model
|
|
# string are
|
|
# 'forgotten', so the vendor and model for this next device will be
|
|
# determined from the result of a SCSI inquiry.

.SH SCSI ADAPTER TIPS
|
|
|
|
Some Artec scanners come with an included SCSI adapter. If your scanner came
|
|
with a DTC ISA scsi cards, you can probably use it with recent (>= 2.2.0)
|
|
kernels using the generic NCR5380 support. You must pass the following
|
|
boot argument to the kernel: "dtc3181e=0x2c0,0"
|
|
.br
|
|
I do not have any information on the PCI SCSI adapter included with some
|
|
newer Artec scanners.
|
|
|
|
.SH FILES
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I @CONFIGDIR@/artec.conf
|
|
The backend configuration file (see also description of
|
|
.B SANE_CONFIG_DIR
|
|
below).
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I @LIBDIR@/libsane\-artec.a
|
|
The static library implementing this backend.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I @LIBDIR@/libsane\-artec.so
|
|
The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems that
|
|
support dynamic loading).
|
|
.SH ENVIRONMENT
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B SANE_CONFIG_DIR
|
|
This environment variable specifies the list of directories that may
|
|
contain the configuration file. Under UNIX, the directories are
|
|
separated by a colon (`:'), under OS/2, they are separated by a semi-
|
|
colon (`;'). If this variable is not set, the configuration file is
|
|
searched in two default directories: first, the current working direc-
|
|
tory (".") and then in @CONFIGDIR@. If the value of the
|
|
environment variable ends with the directory separator character, then
|
|
the default directories are searched after the explicitly specified
|
|
directories. For example, setting
|
|
.B SANE_CONFIG_DIR
|
|
to "/tmp/config:" would result in directories "tmp/config", ".", and
|
|
"@CONFIGDIR@" being searched (in this order).
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B SANE_DEBUG_ARTEC
|
|
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 BUGS
|
|
|
|
Known bugs in this release: A6000C+ users with firmware v1.92 or
|
|
earlier have problems with the backend, the cause has not been determined.
|
|
Sometimes the backend is not particularly robust, you can possibly lock up
|
|
the SCSI bus (and/or machine) by not having patience enough when scanning.
|
|
3-channel gamma correction is not implemented and single-channel gamma
|
|
correction is not totally working on models other than the AT3.
