<H2>NAME</H2><PRE>
sane-mustek_usb - SANE backend for Mustek USB flatbed scanners
</PRE>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
The <B>sane-mustek_usb</B> library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy)
backend that provides access to Mustek USB flatbed scanners (including
a clone from Trust). At present, the following scanners are known to
work more or less with this backend:
Mustek 600 CU
Mustek 1200 UB
Mustek 1200 CU
Mustek 1200 CU Plus
Trust Compact Scan USB 19200
More details can be found on the Mustek USB backend homepage
<I>http://www.meier-geinitz.de/sane/mustek</I><B>_</B><I>usb-backend/</I>.
The Mustek BearPaw 1200 and 2400 scanners are supported by the plustek
backend. See <B><A HREF="sane-plustek.5.html">sane-plustek(5)</A></B> for details. The Mustek BearPaw 1200F is
supported by the MA-1509 backend. See <B><A HREF="sane-ma1509.5.html">sane-ma1509(5)</A></B> for details. Other
Mustek USB scanners are supported by the gt68xx backend, see
<B><A HREF="sane-gt68xx.5.html">sane-gt68xx(5)</A></B>.
This backend can only work with scanners that are already detected by
the operating system. See <B><A HREF="sane-usb.5.html">sane-usb(5)</A></B> for details.
If you own a Mustek (or Trust) scanner other than the ones listed above
that works with this backend, please let me know this by sending the
scanner's exact model name and the USB vendor and device ids (e.g. from
<I>/proc/bus/usb/devices</I> or syslog) to me.
</PRE>
<H2>DEVICE NAMES</H2><PRE>
This backend expects device names of the form:
<I>special</I>
Where <I>special</I> is a path-name for the special device that corresponds to
a USB scanner. With Linux, such a device name could be <I>/dev/usb/scan-</I>
<I>ner0</I> or <I>/dev/usbscanner1</I>, for example.
For FreeBSD use <I>/dev/uscanner0</I>.
</PRE>
<H2>CONFIGURATION</H2><PRE>
The contents of the <I>mustek</I><B>_</B><I>usb.conf</I> file is a list of options and de-
vice names that correspond to Mustek USB scanners. Empty lines and
lines starting with a hash mark (#) are ignored. If a device name is
placed in <I>mustek</I><B>_</B><I>usb.conf</I>, it must be followed by a line containing the
keyword <B>option</B> and an option specifying the scanner type. The following
options can be used: <B>600cu</B>, <B>1200cu</B>, <B>1200cu_plus</B>, <B>1200ub</B>. For the Trust
Compact Scan USB 19200 use `option 1200ub'.
Instead of using the device name, the scanner can be autodetected by
<B>usb</B> <B>vendor_id</B> <B>product_id</B> statements which are already included into
<I>mustek</I><B>_</B><I>usb.conf</I>. This is only supported with Linux 2.4.8 and higher
and all systems that support libusb. "vendor_id" and "product_id" are
hexadecimal numbers that identify the scanner. If this doesn't work, a
device name and the option specifying the scanner type must be placed
in <I>mustek</I><B>_</B><I>usb.conf</I> as described above.
The global <B>option</B> <B>max_block_size</B> can be used to limit the amount of
data acquired in one turn from the USB system. It may be worth trying,
if USB errors occur.
A sample configuration file is shown below:
# Comment
option max_block_size 1024
usb 0x055f 0x0001
/dev/usb/scanner0
option 600cu
The first line is ignored. The second line sets the buffer size to a
maximum of 1024 bytes. The third line tries to autodetect a scanner
with vendor id 0x055f and product id 0x0001 (Mustek 1200 CU). The
fourth line tells the backend to attach to <I>/dev/usb/scanner0</I> and the
fifth line specifies that <I>/dev/usb/scanner0</I> is a Mustek 600 CU.
</PRE>
<H2>FILES</H2><PRE>
<I>/usr/local/etc/sane.d/mustek</I><B>_</B><I>usb.conf</I>
The backend configuration file (see also description of
<B>SANE_CONFIG_DIR</B> below).
<I>/usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-mustek</I><B>_</B><I>usb.a</I>
The static library implementing this backend.
<I>/usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-mustek</I><B>_</B><I>usb.so</I>
The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems
that support dynamic loading).
</PRE>
<H2>ENVIRONMENT</H2><PRE>
<B>SANE_CONFIG_DIR</B>
This environment variable specifies the list of directories that
may contain the configuration file. On *NIX systems, the direc-
tories are separated by a colon (`:'), under OS/2, they are sep-
arated by a semi-colon (`;'). If this variable is not set, the
configuration file is searched in two default directories:
first, the current working directory (".") and then in <I>/usr/lo-</I>
<I>cal/etc/sane.d</I>. If the value of the environment variable ends
with the directory separator character, then the default direc-
tories are searched after the explicitly specified directories.
For example, setting <B>SANE_CONFIG_DIR</B> to "/tmp/config:" would re-
sult in directories <I>tmp/config</I>, <I>.</I>, and <I>/usr/local/etc/sane.d</I> be-
ing searched (in this order).
<B>SANE_DEBUG_MUSTEK_USB</B>
If the library was compiled with debug support enabled, this en-
vironment variable controls the debug level for this backend.
Higher debug levels increase the verbosity of the output.
Value Description
0 no output
1 print fatal errors
2 print important messages
3 print non-fatal errors and less important messages
4 print all but debugging messages
5 print high level debugging messages
6 print medium level debugging messages
7 print low level debugging messages
Example: export SANE_DEBUG_MUSTEK_USB=4

This backend is based on the Mustek 1200ub backend from Mustek, main-
tained by Tom Wang.

<H2>BUGS</H2><PRE>
These devices have a hardware bug: Once data is written to them, they
can't be reset (toggle = DATA0). That means, any operation that tries
to reset the device will result in running into timeouts.
In earlier versions this backend failed when it was loaded the second
time in some configurations. The only choice was to replug the scanner
in this case. The backend uses a workaround for that bug now but it's
only tested on Linux. Reports for other operating systems are appreci-
ated.
More detailed bug information is available at the Mustek backend home-
page <I>http://www.meier-geinitz.de/sane/mustek</I><B>_</B><I>usb-backend/</I>.
