6 sane-lexmark - SANE backend for Lexmark X1100 Series scanners
7
9 The sane-lexmark library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy)
10 backend that provides access to the scanner part of Lexmark X1100 AIOs.
11 This backend should be considered beta-quality software!
12 The scanners that should work with this backend are:
14 Vendor Model status
16 ---------------------- -----------
17 Lexmark X1110 untested
18 Lexmark X1140 untested
19 Lexmark X1150 untested
20 Lexmark X1170 untested
21 Lexmark X1180 basic
22 Lexmark X1185 basic
23 The options the backend supports can either be selected through command
25 line options to programs like scanimage or through GUI elements in
26 xscanimage or xsane.
27 If you have any strange behavior, please report to the backend main‐
29 tainer or to the SANE mailing list.
30 Valid command line options and their syntax can be listed by using
32 scanimage --help -d lexmark:usb:<usb port>
33 Scan Mode Options
36 --mode selects the basic mode of operation of the scanner valid choices
39 are Color, Gray and Lineart The default mode is Color. The Lin‐
40 eart mode is black and white only (1 bit). Grayscale will pro‐
41 duce 256 levels of gray (8 bits). Color mode allows for over 16
42 million different colors produced from 24 bits of color informa‐
43 tion.
44 --resolution
47 selects the resolution for a scan. The horizontal and vertical
48 resolutions are set by the value of this option. The scanner is
49 capable of the following resolutions for the specified option
50 value:
51 Value Hor. Resolution Vert. Resolution
53 ----- --------------- -------------------
54 75 75dpi 75dpi
55 150 150dpi 150dpi
56 300 300dpi 300dpi
57 600 600dpi 600dpi
58 1200 600dpi 1200dpi
59 --preview
62 requests a preview scan. The resolution used for that scan is 75
63 dpi and the scan area and the scan mode are as specified through
64 their options, or the default if not specified. The default
65 value for preview mode is "no".
66 --paper-size
69 selects the size of the area to be scanned. Valid sizes are Wal‐
70 let, 3x5, 4x6, 5x7, 8x10, Letter, the default size is 3x5.
71 --threshold
74 selects the minimum-brightness to get a white point. The
75 threshold is only used with Lineart mode scans. It is specified
76 as a percentage in the range 0..100% (in steps of 1). The
77 default value of the threshold option is 50.
78
82 The configuration file /etc/sane.d/lexmark.conf contains only the usb
83 device id (eg usb 0x043d 0x007c).
84
88 /usr/lib*/sane/libsane-lexmark.a
89 The static library implementing this backend.
90 /usr/lib*/sane/libsane-lexmark.so
92 The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems
93 that support dynamic loading).
94
98 SANE_DEBUG_LEXMARK
99 If the library was compiled with debug support enabled, this
100 environment variable controls the debug level for this backend.
101 E.g., a value of 128 requests all debug output to be printed.
102 Smaller levels reduce verbosity.
103
107 The windows TWAIN driver has many more options than this SANE backend.
108 However they are only software adjustments. This backend only imple‐
109 ments what the scanner can support.
110
114 Jerky movement on 600dpi gray 8x10 scan.
115 Color calibration not implemented.
116 Dark compensation not implemented.
