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
- /etc/sane.d/s9036.conf
-
The backend configuration file (see also description of
SANE_CONFIG_DIR
below).
- /usr/lib/sane/libsane-s9036.a
-
The static library implementing this backend.
- /usr/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 configuration file
is searched in two default directories: first, the current working
directory (".") and then in /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
directories. For example, setting
SANE_CONFIG_DIR
to "/tmp/config:" would result in directories "tmp/config", ".", and
"/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
