DESCRIPTION
The sane-sm3840 library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend that provides access to some Microtek scanners with the SCAN08 USB chip.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 ([email protected]) 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
This backend does not support a configuration file right now.
FILES
- /usr/lib/arch_triplet/sane/libsane-sm3840.a
- The static library implementing this backend.
- /usr/lib/arch_triplet/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.
