SANE backend for NEC scanners
Description
The sane-nec library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend that provides access to NEC SCSI scanners. This backend should be considered alpha-quality software! In the current state it is known to work with PC-IN500/4C scanners. Other MultiReader scanner series are not supported. PC-IN 500/4C and MultiReader scanner are only sold in Japan (except Multi Reader PetiScan).
For other scanners, it may or may not work.
The backend has the following known problems:
- ColorLineart mode is not supported.
- Device name is fixed to /dev/scanner
At present, the following scanners are known to work with this backend.
Vendor Product id ------ ----------- NEC PC-IN500/4C
Files
- /etc/sane.d/nec.conf
The backend configuration file.
- /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-nec.a
The static library implementing this backend.
- /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-nec.so
The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems that support dynamic loading).
Environment
- SANE_DEBUG_NEC
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.
