NAME

       sane-s9036 - SANE backend for Siemens 9036 flatbed scanners

DESCRIPTION

       The  sane-s9036  library  implements  a  SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy)
       backend that provides access to Siemens 9036 flatbed scanners.

DEVICE NAMES

       This backend expects device names of the form:

              special

       Where special is the path-name for the special device that  corresponds
       to  a  SCSI  scanner.  The  special  device name must be a generic SCSI
       device or a symlink to such a device.   The  program  sane-find-scanner
       helps  to  find out the correct device. Under Linux, such a device name
       could be /dev/sga or  /dev/sge,  for  example.   See  sane-scsi(5)  for
       details.

FILES

       /usr/local/etc/sane.d/s9036.conf
              The   backend   configuration  file  (see  also  description  of
              SANE_CONFIG_DIR below).

       /usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-s9036.a
              The static library implementing this backend.

       /usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-s9036.so
              The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems
              that support dynamic loading).

ENVIRONMENT

       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 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  SANE_CONFIG_DIR  to  "/tmp/config:"
              would    result    in   directories   "tmp/config",   ".",   and
              "/usr/local/etc/sane.d" being searched (in this order).

       SANE_DEBUG_S9036
              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.

              Example: export SANE_DEBUG_S9036=4
