6 sane-tamarack - SANE backend for Tamarack flatbed scanners
7
9 The sane-tamarack library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy)
10 backend that provides access to the following Tamarack flatbed scan‐
11 ners:
12
13 Artiscan 6000C
14 Artiscan 8000C
15 Artiscan 12000C
16
18 This backend expects device names of the form:
19
20 special
21
22 Where special is the path-name for the special device that corresponds
23 to a SCSI scanner. The special device name must be a generic SCSI de‐
24 vice or a symlink to such a device. The program sane-find-scanner(1)
25 helps to find out the correct device. Under Linux, such a device name
26 could be /dev/sga or /dev/sge, for example. See sane-scsi(5) for de‐
27 tails.
28
29
31 /etc/sane.d/tamarack.conf
32 The backend configuration file (see also description of
33 SANE_CONFIG_DIR below).
34
35 /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-tamarack.a
36 The static library implementing this backend.
37
38 /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-tamarack.so
39 The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems
40 that support dynamic loading).
41
43 SANE_CONFIG_DIR
44 This environment variable specifies the list of directories that
45 may contain the configuration file. On *NIX systems, the direc‐
46 tories are separated by a colon (`:'), under OS/2, they are sep‐
47 arated by a semi-colon (`;'). If this variable is not set, the
48 configuration file is searched in two default directories:
49 first, the current working directory (".") and then in
50 /etc/sane.d. If the value of the environment variable ends with
51 the directory separator character, then the default directories
52 are searched after the explicitly specified directories. For
53 example, setting SANE_CONFIG_DIR to "/tmp/config:" would result
54 in directories tmp/config, ., and /etc/sane.d being searched (in
55 this order).
56
57 SANE_DEBUG_TAMARACK
58 If the library was compiled with debug support enabled, this en‐
59 vironment variable controls the debug level for this backend.
60 Higher debug levels increase the verbosity of the output.
