NAME

6       sane-nec - SANE backend for NEC scanners
7

DESCRIPTION

9       The  sane-nec library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) back‐
10       end that provides access to NEC SCSI scanners.  This backend should  be
11       considered alpha-quality software!  In the current state it is known to
12       work with PC-IN500/4C scanners. Another MultiReader scanner  series  is
13       not  supported.  PC-IN  500/4C and MultiReader scanner are only sold in
14       Japan (except Multi Reader PetiScan).
15
16       For other scanners, it may or may not work.
17
18       The backend has the following known problems:
19
20              - ColorLineart mode is not supported.
21
22              - Device name is fixed to /dev/scanner
23
24       At present, the following scanners are known to work with this backend.

FILES

32       /etc/sane.d/nec.conf
33              The backend configuration file.
34
35       /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-nec.a
36              The static library implementing this backend.
37
38       /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-nec.so
39              The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems
40              that support dynamic loading).
41
42

ENVIRONMENT

44       SANE_DEBUG_NEC
45              If  the  library  was  compiled with debug support enabled, this
46              environment variable controls the debug level for this  backend.
47              E.g.,  a  value  of 128 requests all debug output to be printed.
48              Smaller levels reduce verbosity.
