sane\-sm3840

NAME

DESCRIPTION

There exist backends for Microtek scanners with SCSI command set. Refer to sane-microtek(5) and sane-microtek2(5) for details.

There also exists a Microtek 3600 series driver, see sane-sm3600(5) for details.

At present, the following scanners are known positively to work with this backend:

Vendor     Product ID:     Remark:
--------   --------------  -----------
Microtek   ScanMaker 3840  All modes OK
Microtek   ScanMaker 4800  All modes OK

If you own a Microtek scanner with the SCAN08 chip other than the ones listed above, it may or may not work with SANE. Feel free to contact the backend author (earle@ziplabel.com) to report results with scanners not on the list.

FRONTEND OPTIONS

The following options are supported by the sm3840-driver:

--mode color|gray|lineart|halftone
Color or grayscale mode.

--resolution 150|300|600|1200
Pixels per inch for scans.

--depth 8|16
Note that the least significant bits of 16bpp mode may be noise.

--brightness 1..4096
Higher numbers increase brightness of returned image.

--contrast 0.1..9.9
Larger numbers decrease contrast of returned image.

--lamp-timeout 1..15
Time in minutes until the lamp is turned off after a scan.

CONFIGURATION

FILES

/usr/lib/sane/libsane-sm3840.a

The static library implementing this backend.

/usr/lib/sane/libsane-sm3840.so

The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems that support dynamic loading).

ENVIRONMENT

SANE_DEBUG_SM3840

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. To see error messages on stderr set SANE_DEBUG_SM3840 to 1.
