Keep your hand at the scanner's plug and unplug it, if +scanner does not start to scan. See also the +.B BUGS +section. +.PP +If you own a scanner other than the ones listed above that works with this +backend, please let us know this by sending the scanner's exact model name and +the USB vendor and device ids (e.g. from +.IR /proc/bus/usb/devices , +.BR sane\-find\-scanner (1) +or syslog) to us. Even if the scanner's name is only slightly different from +the models mentioned above, please let us know. +.PP + +.SH CONFIGURATION +The contents of the +.I hp3900.conf +file is a list of usb lines containing vendor and product ids that correspond +to USB scanners. The file can also contain the names of device files that +correspond to an HP 39XX scanner. Empty lines and lines starting with a hash +mark (#) are ignored. The scanners are autodetected by +.B usb vendor_id product_id +statements which are already included into +.IR hp3900.conf . +"vendor_id" and "product_id" are hexadecimal numbers that identify the +scanner.

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 +.RI ( "." ) +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_HP3900 +If the library was compiled with debug support enabled, this +environment variable controls the debug level for this backend.
