Scanner that are +known to return bogus data are marked in the backend +so if you need this option please report this to the +backend maintainer. USE WITH CARE! +.TP +skip\-adf: +Forces the backend to ignore an inconsistent ADF +status returned by the scanner (ADF not present, but +ADF model number non-zero). Without this option, the +backend will make several attempts to reset the ADF +and retry the query in this situation, and will fail +with a "not supported" error if the ADF still doesn't +respond. +.TP +disable\-gamma\-table: +Disables the usage of the scanner's gamma-table. You +might try this if your scans hang or only produce +random garbage. +.TP +disable\-calibration: +Disables the scanner's color calibration. You +might try this if your scans hang or only produce +random garbage. +.TP +Note: +Any option above modifies the default code-flow +for your scanner. The options should only be used +when you encounter problems with the default behavior +of the backend. Please report the need of +options to the backend-author so the backend can +be fixed as soon as possible. + +.SH "DEVICE NAMES" +This backend expects device names of the form: +.PP +.RS +.I scsi scsi-spec + +.I usb usb-spec +.RE +.PP +Where +.I scsi-spec +is the path-name to a special device or a device ID for the device that +corresponds to a SCSI scanner. The special device name must be a generic +SCSI device or a symlink to such a device, for example on Linux +.I /dev/sga +or +.IR /dev/sg0 . +The device ID is the ID returned by the scanner, for example +"HP" or "AVISION". See +.BR sane\-scsi (5) +for details. +.TP +Note: +Since the backend now includes native USB access, +it is no longer needed \- even considered obsolete \- +to access USB scanner via the SCSI emulation (named +hpusbscsi on Linux) for Avision USB devices such as +the HP 53xx, HP 74xx or Minolta film-scanners. +.PP +.I usb-spec +is the USB device name, the vendor/product ID pair or the name used by +libusb corresponding to the USB scanner. For example "0x03f0 0x0701" or +"libusb:002:003". See +.BR sane\-usb (5) +for details. + +The program +.BR sane\-find\-scanner (1) +helps to find out the correct scsi or usb device name. + +A list with supported devices is built into the avision backend so +normally specifying an ID should not be necessary. + +.SH FILES +.TP +.I /etc/sane.d/avision.conf +The backend configuration file (see also description of +.B SANE_CONFIG_DIR +below). +.TP +.I /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane/libsane\-avision.a +The static library implementing this backend. +.TP +.I /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane/libsane\-avision.so +The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems that +support dynamic loading). + +.SH ENVIRONMENT +.TP +.B SANE_CONFIG_DIR +This environment variable specifies the list of directories that may +contain the configuration file. On *NIX systems, 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 +.IR /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 +.B SANE_CONFIG_DIR +to "/tmp/config:" would result in directories +.IR tmp/config , +.IR . , +and +.I /etc/sane.d +being searched (in this order). +.TP +.B SANE_DEBUG_AVISION +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. The debug +level 7 is the author's preferred value to debug backend problems. + +Example: +export SANE_DEBUG_AVISION=7 + +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR sane (7), +.BR sane\-scsi (5), +.BR sane\-usb (5) +.br +.I http://exactcode.com/site/open_source/saneavision + +.SH MAINTAINER +Ren\['e] Rebe + +.SH AUTHOR +Ren\['e] Rebe and Meino Christian Cramer |
