sane-ibm - SANE backend for IBM and Ricoh SCSI flatbed scanners

<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
|
|
|
|
|
The <B>sane-ibm</B> library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) back-
|
|
|
|
|
end that provides access to the IBM 2456 and the Ricoh IS-410, IS-420,
|
|
|
|
|
and IS-430 flatbed scanners. Support for the IS-410 and IS-430 is
|
|
|
|
|
untested. Please contact the maintainer or the sane-devel mailing list
|
|
|
|
|
if you own such a scanner.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This backend is alpha-quality. It may have bugs and some scanners
|
|
|
|
|
haven't been tested at all. Be careful and pull the plug if the scanner
|
|
|
|
|
causes unusual noise.

|
<H2>DEVICE NAMES</H2><PRE>
|
|
|
|
|
This backend expects device names of the form:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<I>special</I>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Where <I>special</I> is either the path-name for the special device that cor-
|
|
|
|
|
responds to a SCSI scanner. The program <I>sane-find-scanner</I> helps to find
|
|
|
|
|
out the correct device. Under Linux, such a device name could be
|
|
|
|
|
<I>/dev/sg0</I> or <I>/dev/sga</I>, for example. See <B><A HREF="sane-scsi.5.html">sane-scsi(5)</A></B> for details.

|
|
<H2>CONFIGURATION</H2><PRE>
|
|
|
|
|
The contents of the <I>ibm.conf</I> file is a list of device names that corre-
|
|
|
|
|
spond to SCSI scanners. Empty lines and lines starting with a hash
|
|
|
|
|
mark (#) are ignored. See <B><A HREF="sane-scsi.5.html">sane-scsi(5)</A></B> on details of what constitutes
|
|
|
|
|
a valid device name.

<H2>FILES</H2><PRE>
|
|
|
|
|
<I>/usr/local/etc/sane.d/ibm.conf</I>
|
|
|
|
|
The backend configuration file (see also description of
|
|
|
|
|
<B>SANE_CONFIG_DIR</B> below).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<I>/usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-ibm.a</I>
|
|
|
|
|
The static library implementing this backend.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<I>/usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-ibm.so</I>
|
|
|
|
|
The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems
|
|
|
|
|
that support dynamic loading).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
<H2>ENVIRONMENT</H2><PRE>
|
|
|
|
|
<B>SANE_CONFIG_DIR</B>
|
|
|
|
|
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 config-
|
|
|
|
|
uration file is searched in two default directories: first, the
|
|
|
|
|
current working directory (".") and then in
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/local/etc/sane.d. If the value of the environment variable
|
|
|
|
|
ends with the directory separator character, then the default
|
|
|
|
|
directories are searched after the explicitly specified directo-
|
|
|
|
|
ries. For example, setting <B>SANE_CONFIG_DIR</B> to "/tmp/config:"
|
|
|
|
|
would result in directories "tmp/config", ".", and
|
|
|
|
|
"/usr/local/etc/sane.d" being searched (in this order).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<B>SANE_DEBUG_IBM</B>
|
|
|
|
|
If the library was compiled with debug support enabled, this
|
|
|
|
|
environment variable controls the debug level for this backend.
|
|
|
|
|
Higher debug levels increase the verbosity of the output.
