NAME
sane-nec - 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. Another MultiReader scanner series is 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/lib/sane/libsane-nec.a The static library implementing this backend. /usr/lib/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. SEE ALSO
