NAME
sane-epson - SANE backend for EPSON ScanJet scanners

DESCRIPTION
The sane-epson library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend that provides access to Epson SCSI scanners. This backend should be considered alpha-quality software! The current backend is known to work for GT-5000, GT-5500, and GR-8500 scanners. For other scanners, it may or may not work. Please send mail to sane-devel@mostang.com to report successes or failures. The backend has the following are known problems:

    - image depth is limited to 8 bits/channel (24 bits/pixel)
    - gamma-table is for CRT-B only
    - cancel does not work
    - device name is fixed to /dev/scanner
    - memory leaks

FILES

/usr/local/lib/libsane-epson.a
    The static library implementing this backend.

/usr/local/lib/libsane-epson.so
    The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems that support dynamic loading).

ENVIRONMENT

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