6 sane-ricoh - SANE backend for Ricoh flatbed scanners
7
9 The sane-ricoh library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy)
10 backend that provides access to the following Ricoh flatbed scanners:
11
12 IS50
13 IS60
14
16 This backend expects device names of the form:
17
18 special
19
20 Where special is the path-name for the special device that corresponds
21 to a SCSI scanner. The special device name must be a generic SCSI de‐
22 vice or a symlink to such a device. The program sane-find-scanner(1)
23 helps to find out the correct device. Under Linux, such a device name
24 could be /dev/sga or /dev/sge, for example. See sane-scsi(5) for de‐
25 tails.
26
27
29 /etc/sane.d/ricoh.conf
30 The backend configuration file (see also description of
31 SANE_CONFIG_DIR below).
32
33 /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-ricoh.a
34 The static library implementing this backend.
35
36 /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-ricoh.so
37 The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems
38 that support dynamic loading).
39
41 SANE_CONFIG_DIR
42 This environment variable specifies the list of directories that
43 may contain the configuration file. On *NIX systems, the direc‐
44 tories are separated by a colon (`:'), under OS/2, they are sep‐
45 arated by a semi-colon (`;'). If this variable is not set, the
46 configuration file is searched in two default directories:
47 first, the current working directory (".") and then in
48 /etc/sane.d. If the value of the environment variable ends with
49 the directory separator character, then the default directories
50 are searched after the explicitly specified directories. For
51 example, setting SANE_CONFIG_DIR to "/tmp/config:" would result
52 in directories tmp/config, ., and /etc/sane.d being searched (in
53 this order).
54
55 SANE_DEBUG_RICOH
56 If the library was compiled with debug support enabled, this en‐
57 vironment variable controls the debug level for this backend.
58 Higher debug levels increase the verbosity of the output.
