6 sane-kodakaio - SANE backend for Kodak aio printer / scanners

10 The sane-kodakaio library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy)
11 backend which provides access to Kodak aio printer/scanners, like the
12 ESP and Hero series.
13
14 This document describes backend version 2.4, which is the first candi‐
15 date for incorporation in sane-backends.

19 This version should support models of the Kodak ESP and Hero series,
20 and possibly some Advent AiO scanners. The ESP 5250 and Hero 9.1 were
21 used to develop the backend, but other models may work. Please see the
22 desc file.
23
24 If you have a model not on that list, or reported as 'untested': the
25 best way to determine level of support is to test the scanner directly.

29 The configuration file kodakaio.conf is used to tell the backend how to
30 look for scanners, and provide options controlling the operation of the
31 backend. This file is read each time the frontend asks the backend for
32 a list of scanners, generally only when the frontend starts.

36 SANE_DEBUG_KODAKAIO
37 If the library was compiled with debug support enabled, this
38 environment variable controls the debug level for this backend.
39 Higher debug levels increase the verbosity of the output.

43 Most hardware options are either not supported or not exposed for con‐
44 trol by the user, including: multifeed detection, image compression
45 etc.
