NAME

sane-hp5590 - SANE backend for Hewlett-Packard 5550/5590/7650 Workgroup/Document scanners

DESCRIPTION

The sane-hp5590 library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend that provides access to the following Hewlett-Packard Workgroup/Document scanners:

: ScanJet 4570
ScanJet 5550
ScanJet 5590
ScanJet 7650

If you own a scanner other than the ones listed above that works with this backend, please let us know this by sending the scanner's exact model name and the USB vendor and device ids (e.g. from /proc/bus/usb/devices, sane-find-scanner or syslog) to us. Even if the scanner's name is only slightly different from the models mentioned above, please let us know.

CONFIGURATION

None required.

FILES

/usr/lib/sane/libsane-hp5590.a: The static library implementing this backend.
/usr/lib/sane/libsane-hp5590.so: The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems that support dynamic loading).

ENVIRONMENT

SANE_DEBUG_HP5590

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. See used levels below.

Level 10 - generic processing
Level 20 - verbose backend messages
Level 40 - HP5590 high-level commands
Level 50 - HP5590 low-level (USB-in-USB) commands

Example:
