NAME

6       sane-umax1220u  -  SANE  backend  for  the UMAX Astra 1220U and similar
7       scanners

DESCRIPTION

11       The sane-umax1220 library implements a SANE (Scanner Access  Now  Easy)
12       backend for the the UMAX Astra 1220U and similar scanners.
13
14       For  more  information  on this backend, please visit http://umax1220u-
15       sane.sourceforge.net/.

UMAX ASTRA 1600U/2000U/2100U SUPPORT

19       This backend is also able to drive the  UMAX  Astra  1600U/2000U/2100U.
20       The  2100U is confirmed to work. For the other scanners no reports have
21       been received yet. Please contact us and tell us if your scanner  works
22       (sane-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org).

CONFIGURATION

26       Usually,  no  manual configuration is necessary. The configuration file
27       for this backend resides in /etc/sane.d/umax1220u.conf.
28
29       Its contents is a list of device names that correspond  to  UMAX  Astra
30       scanners.   Empty  lines  and  lines  starting with a hash mark (#) are
31       ignored. A sample configuration file is shown below:
32
33        #usb vendor product
34        usb 0x1606 0x0010
35        # Device list for non-linux systems
36        /dev/scanner
37        /dev/usb/scanner0
38
39       See sane-usb(5) for information on how to set the access permissions on
40       the usb device files.

FILES

44       The backend configuration file:
45              /etc/sane.d/umax1220u.conf
46
47       The static library implementing this backend:
48              /usr/lib*/sane/libsane-umax1220u.a
49
50       The shared library implementing this backend:
51              /usr/lib*/sane/libsane-umax1220u.so  (present  on  systems  that
52              support dynamic loading)
53
54

ENVIRONMENT

56       SANE_DEBUG_UMAX1220U
57              If the library was compiled with  debug  support  enabled,  this
58              environment  variable controls the debug level for this backend.
59              E.g., a value of 128 requests all debug output  to  be  printed.
60              Smaller levels reduce verbosity:

62              SANE_DEBUG_UMAX1220U values
63
64              Number  Remark
65
66               1       print failures
67               2       print information
68               3       print high-level function calls
69               4       print high-level function checkpoints
70               9       print mid-level function calls
71               10      print mid-level function checkpoints
72               80      print protocol-level function entry
73               90      print protocol-level function exit
74

76       Example:
77              export SANE_DEBUG_UMAX1220U=10

KNOWN BUGS

81       600 dpi scanning may fail for large image sizes.
82
83       If  you  keep getting I/O errors, try cycling the power on your scanner
84       to reset it.
85
86       There is no way to cancel a scan, since the  driver  ignores  sane_can‐
87       cel().
88
89       If  you  try  scanning  an  image  which is too small, you will get I/O
90       errors. Be sure to adjust the scan area before doing a scan,  since  by
91       default, the scan area is zero.
