NAME

sane-hp_rts88xx - SANE backend for scanners based on the RTS8891 chipset.

DESCRIPTION

The sane-hp_rts88xx implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend that provides access to RTS8891 chipset based scanners. This backend will try to support the following models:

MANUFACTURER: MODEL: USB ID:
--------------- -------------- ---------
Hewlett-Packard Scanjet 4400c 03F0-0705
Hewlett-Packard Scanjet 4470c 03F0-0805
Hewlett-Packard Scanjet 3500C 03F0-2205
Hewlett-Packard Scanjet 3530c 03F0-2005
Hewlett-Packard Scanjet 3570c 03F0-2005


DEVICE NAMES

This backend expects device names of the form:
special

Where special is a path-name for the special device that corresponds to a USB scanner. With GNU/Linux systems, such a device name could be /dev/usb/scanner0 or /dev/usbscanner1, for example.

CONFIGURATION

The hp_rts88xx.conf file contains the device name that correspond to the hp44x0c scanner. Empty lines and lines starting with a hash mark (#) are ignored.

A sample configuration file is shown below:

# Comment
/dev/usbscanner # option_CCD # CCD0 or CCD1 allowed # if you receive a black image, change it to CCD1 option CCD0

The first line is ignored. The second line is the device filename to use in order to access the hp44x0c Scanner. If no device is given, the backend will use libUSB.

FILES

/etc/sane.d/hp_rts88xx.conf
The backend configuration file (see also description of SANE_CONFIG_DIR below).
/usr/lib/sane/libsane-hp_rts88xx.a
The static library implementing this backend.
/usr/lib/sane/libsane-hp_rts88xx.so
The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems that support dynamic loading).

ENVIRONMENT

SANE_CONFIG_DIR
This environment variable specifies the list of directories that may contain the configuration file. Under UNIX, the directories are separated by a colon (`:'), under OS/2, they are separated by a semi-colon (`;'). If this variable is not set, the configuration file is searched in two default directories: first, the current working directory (".") and then in /etc/sane.d. If the value of the environment variable ends with the directory separator character, then the default directories are searched after the explicitly specified directories. For example, setting SANE_CONFIG_DIR to "/tmp/config:" would result in directories "tmp/config", ".", and "/etc/sane.d" being searched (in this order).
