sane-tamarack(5) SANE Scanner Access Now Easy sane-tamarack(5)NAMEsane-tamarack - SANE backend for Tamarack flatbed scanners
DESCRIPTION
The sane-tamarack library implements a SANE (Scanner
Access Now Easy) backend that provides access to the fol-
lowing Tamarack flatbed scanners:
Artiscan 6000C
Artiscan 8000C
Artiscan 12000C
DEVICE NAMES
This backend expects device names of the form:
special
Where special is the path-name for the special device that
corresponds to a SCSI scanner. The special device name
must be a generic SCSI device or a symlink to such a
device. The program sane-find-scanner helps to find out
the correct device. Under Linux, such a device name could
be /dev/sga or /dev/sge, for example. See sane-scsi(5)
for details.
FILES
/usr/freeware/etc/sane.d/tamarack.conf
The backend configuration file (see also descrip-
tion of SANE_CONFIG_DIR below).
/usr/freeware/lib32/sane/libsane-tamarack.a
The static library implementing this backend.
/usr/freeware/lib32/sane/libsane-tamarack.so
The shared library implementing this backend (pre-
sent 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 /usr/freeware/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 spec-
ified directories. For example, setting SANE_CON-
FIG_DIR to "/tmp/config:" would result in directo-
ries "tmp/config", ".", and "/usr/free-
ware/etc/sane.d" being searched (in this order).
SANE_DEBUG_TAMARACK
If the library was compiled with debug support
enabled, this environment variable controls the
debug level for this backend. Higher debug levels
increase the verbosity of the output.
Example: export SANE_DEBUG_TAMARACK=4
