<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
|
||
The <B>sane-umax_pp</B> library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy)
|
||
backend that provides access to Umax parallel port flatbed scanners.
|
||
The following scanners work with this backend:
|
||
|
||
Model:
|
||
--------------------
|
||
Astra 610P
|
||
Astra 1220P
|
||
HP3200C
|
||
Astra 1600P
|
||
Astra 2000P
|
||
|
||
This backend handles 75x75, 150x150, 300x300, 600x600 and 600x1200 for
|
||
1220P/1600P/2000P dpi scan reslutions,and 75x75, 150x150, 300x300 and
|
||
300x600 for 610P. In color and gray levels, there is a software lineart
|
||
mode.
|
||
|
||
The new generation models share a newer version of the 610P ASIC embed-
|
||
ded in an EPAT chip. Only parts such as CCD and ADC change from one to
|
||
another. They even all reports being UMAX Astra 1220P via IEEE1284.
|
||
There isn't software way to recognize them properly. Under windows,
|
||
model is set by the driver installed, regardless of the hardware.
|
||
|
||
<B>EPP/ECP</B> <B>MODES</B> <B>ONLY</B>
|
||
The current version of the backend uses only EPP or ECP mode to
|
||
communicate with the scanner. PS/2 mode isn't implemented. The
|
||
610P only use SPP. It is recommended that you set your parallel
|
||
port to EPP in BIOS with the current version of this backend.
|
||
You can leave it to ECP or ECP+EPP, but in this case you may not
|
||
use ppdev but only direct hardware access if you have to use
|
||
ECP. ECPEPP will only work if you use a 2.4 or 2.6 kernel with
|
||
ppdev character device support.
|
||
|
||
This backend does support parport sharing only <I>if</I> <I>you</I> <I>have</I> <I>a</I> <I>kernel</I>
|
||
<I>with</I> <I>ppdev</I> <I>support.</I>
|
||
|
||
Note that if you don't use the ppdev character device, the backend
|
||
needs to run as root. To allow user access to the scanner run the back-
|
||
end through the network interface (See <B><A HREF="saned.8.html">saned(8)</A></B> and <B><A HREF="sane-net.5.html">sane-net(5)</A></B>). A
|
||
more relaxed solution (security wise) is to add suid bit to the fron-
|
||
tend (See <B><A HREF="chmod.1.html">chmod(1)</A></B>). The backend drop root priviledges as soon as it
|
||
can, right after gaining direct access to IO ports, which lessen risks
|
||
when being root.
|
||
|
||
|
||
</PRE>
|
||
<H2>DEVICE NAMES</H2><PRE>
|
||
This backend expects device names of the form:
|
||
|
||
<I>port</I> <I>value</I>
|
||
|
||
Where <B>value</B> is :
|
||
|
||
auto autodetect all parallel ports and probe them for scanner
|
||
|
||
safe-auto
|
||
autodetect all parallel ports and probe them for scanner,
|
||
but does not try direct hardware access
|
||
|
||
/dev/ppi0
|
||
uses *BSD ppi device, depending on the number of avail-
|
||
able parallel port, you have to use /dev/ppi1, /dev/ppi2,
|
||
...
|
||
|
||
/dev/parport0
|
||
uses linux ppdev device, depending on the number of
|
||
available parallel port, you have to use /dev/parport1,
|
||
/dev/parport2, ...
|
||
|
||
0x378 does direct hardware access on the given address. Usual
|
||
values are 0x378, 0x278, 0x3BC In this case, you have to
|
||
run the scanner as root (*BSD and linux), or with
|
||
'IOPL=yes' on OS/2
|
||
|
||
<B>NOTE:</B> in all cases, you must have sufficient priviledges to get access
|
||
to the chosen device or address. Depending on the security settings,
|
||
devices may not be available for all users. You have to change permis-
|
||
sions on the dev/ppi* or /dev/parport* devices.
|
||
|
||
You can rename any device using the
|
||
|
||
<I>name</I> <I>devname</I>
|
||
<I>model</I> <I>model</I>
|
||
<I>vendor</I> <I>vendor</I>
|
||
|
||
options. These options apply to the last port option.
|
||
|
||
|
||
</PRE>
|
||
<H2>CONFIGURATION</H2><PRE>
|
||
Please make sure to edit umax_pp.conf <B>before</B> you use the backend.
|
||
|
||
The contents of the <B>umax_pp.conf</B> file is a list of options and device
|
||
names that correspond to Umax scanners. Empty lines and lines starting
|
||
with a hash mark (#) are ignored.
|
||
|
||
The height options supported are <B>red-gain</B>, <B>green-gain</B>, <B>blue-gain</B>,
|
||
<B>red-offset</B>, <B>green-offset</B>, <B>blue-offset</B>, <B>astra</B>, and <B>buffer</B>.
|
||
|
||
Options <B>red-gain</B> , <B>green-gain</B> and <B>blue-gain</B> allow you to adjust the
|
||
sensitivy of your scanner for the given color. Values range from 0
|
||
(lowest gain) to 15 (highest). If the advanced option "Gain" isn't
|
||
checked in the frontend, the backend does automatic gain calibration,
|
||
and do not use user provided values.
|
||
|
||
Options <B>red-offset</B> , <B>green-offset</B> and <B>blue-offset</B> allow you to adjust
|
||
the offset of your scanner for the given color. Values range from 0
|
||
(lowest offset) to 15 (highest).
|
||
|
||
Option <B>astra</B> allows you to change the model of your scanner. Current
|
||
auto detection is based on side effects on scanning when using 1220P
|
||
command set on other models, so it may fail on unkown hardware combina-
|
||
tion. Valid values are 610, 1220, 1600 and 2000. It is usefull only
|
||
when autodetection fails to detect properly your scanner model. If your
|
||
scanner work properly but is reported wrongly, let it be that way. The
|
||
only valid case to change the model is when your scanner produces
|
||
'black' or prevent scanner model autodetection.
|
||
|
||
Option <B>buffer</B> allows you to change the size of the scan buffer. The
|
||
size must be specified in bytes. The default value is 2 megabytes.
|
||
Decreasing this value will improve the smoothness of progress bar in
|
||
the frontend, but will stall the scan more often.
|
||
|
||

|
||
<H2>FILES</H2><PRE>
|
||
<I>/usr/local/etc/sane.d/umax</I><B>_</B><I>pp.conf</I>
|
||
The backend configuration file (see also description of
|
||
<B>SANE_CONFIG_DIR</B> below).
|
||
|
||
<I>/usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-umax</I><B>_</B><I>pp.a</I>
|
||
The static library implementing this backend.
|
||
|
||
<I>/usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-umax</I><B>_</B><I>pp.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. 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_UMAX_PP</B>
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
level debug output
|
||
------- ------------------------------
|
||
0 nothing
|
||
1 errors
|
||
2 warnings & minor errors

||
3 additional information

||
4 debug information
|
||
5 code flow (not supported yet)
|
||
6 special debug information
|
||
|
||
<B>SANE_DEBUG_UMAX_PP_LOW</B>
|
||
This variable sets the debug level for the SANE interface for
|
||
the Umax ASIC. Note that enabling this will spam your terminal
|
||
with some million lines of debug output.

<H2>BUG REPORTS</H2><PRE>
|

If something doesn't work, please contact me. But I need some informa-
|
||
tion about your scanner to be able to help you...
|
||
|
||
<I>SANE</I> <I>version</I>
|
||
run "scanimage -V" to determine this
|
||
|
||
<I>the</I> <I>backend</I> <I>version</I> <I>and</I> <I>your</I> <I>scanner</I> <I>hardware</I>
|
||
run "SANE_DEBUG_UMAX_PP=255 scanimage -L 2>log" as root. If you
|
||
don't get any output from the umax_pp backend, make sure a line
|
||
"umax_pp" is included into your /usr/local/etc/sane.d/dll.conf.
|
||
If your scanner isn't detected, make sure you've defined the
|
||
right port address, or the correct device in your umax_pp.conf.
|
||
|
||
<I>the</I> <I>name</I> <I>of</I> <I>your</I> <I>scanner/vendor</I>
|

also a worthy information. Please also include the optical reso-
|

lution and lamp type of your scanner, both can be found in the
|
||
manual of your scanner.
