+
+.SH NAME
+sane\-fujitsu \- SANE backend for Fujitsu flatbed and ADF scanners
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.B sane\-fujitsu
+library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend which provides
+access to most Fujitsu flatbed and ADF scanners.
+
+This document describes backend version 139, which initially shipped with SANE 1.1.2.
+
+.SH SUPPORTED HARDWARE
+This version supports every known model which speaks the Fujitsu SCSI and
+SCSI\-over\-USB protocols. Specifically, the SCSI M309x and M409x series, the
+SCSI fi\-series, and most of the USB fi\-, ScanSnap, & iX series scanners are
+supported. Please see the list at
+.I http://www.sane\-project.org/sane\-supported\-devices.html
+for details.
+
+This backend may support other Fujitsu scanners. The best
+way to determine level of support is to test the scanner directly,
+or to collect a trace of the windows driver in action.
+Please contact the author for help or with test results.
+
+.SH UNSUPPORTED HARDWARE
+The following scanners are known NOT to work with this backend,
+either because they have a non\-Fujitsu chipset, or an unsupported
+interface type. Some of these scanners may be supported by another
+backend.

+.SH OPTIONS
+Effort has been made to expose all hardware options, including:
+.PP
+.B source s
+.RS
+Selects the source for the scan. Options
+may include "Flatbed", "ADF Front", "ADF Back", "ADF Duplex", "Card Front", "Card Back", "Card Duplex".
+.RE
+.PP
+.B mode m
+.RS
+Selects the mode for the scan. Options
+may include "Lineart", "Halftone", "Gray", and "Color".
+.RE
+.PP
+.B resolution, y\-resolution
+.RS
+Controls scan resolution. Setting
+.B \-\-resolution
+also sets
+.BR \-\-y\-resolution,
+though this behavior is overridden by some frontends.
+.RE
+.PP
+.B tl\-x, tl\-y, br\-x, br\-y
+.RS
+Sets scan area upper left and lower right coordinates. These are renamed
+.B t, l, x, y
+by some frontends.
+.RE
+.PP
+.B page\-width, page\-height
+.RS
+Sets paper size. Used by scanner to determine centering of scan
+coordinates when using the ADF (Automatic Document Feeder) and to detect
+double feed errors.
+.RE
+.PP
+Other options will be available based on the capabilities of the scanner:
+machines with IPC or DTC will have additional enhancement options, those
+with CMP will have compression options, those with a printer will have a
+group of endorser options.
+
+Additionally, several 'software' options are exposed by the backend. These
+are reimplementations of features provided natively by larger scanners, but
+running on the host computer. This enables smaller machines to have similar
+capabilities. Please note that these features are somewhat simplistic, and
+may not perform as well as the native implementations. Note also that these
+features all require that the driver cache the entire image in memory. This
+will almost certainly result in a reduction of scanning speed.
+.PP
+.B swcrop
+.RS
+Requests the driver to detect the extremities of the paper within the larger
+image, and crop the empty edges.
+.RE
+.PP
+.B swdeskew
+.RS
+Requests the driver to detect the rotation of the paper within the larger
+image, and counter the rotation.
+.RE
+.PP
+.B swdespeck X
+.RS
+Requests the driver to find and remove dots of X diameter or smaller from the
+image, and fill the space with the average surrounding color.
+.RE
+
+Use
+.I 'scanimage \-\-help'
+to get a list, but be aware that some options may
+be settable only when another option has been set, and that advanced options
+may be hidden by some frontend programs.
+
+.SH CONFIGURATION FILE
+The configuration file
+.I fujitsu.conf
+is used to tell the backend how to look
+for scanners, and provide options controlling the operation of the backend.
+This file is read each time the frontend asks the backend for a list
+of scanners, generally only when the frontend starts. If the configuration
+file is missing, the backend will be unable to locate any scanners.
+.PP
+Scanners can be specified in the configuration file in 4 ways:
+.PP
+"scsi FUJITSU"
+.RS
+Requests backend to search all scsi buses in the system for a device
+which reports itself to be a scanner made by 'FUJITSU'.
+.RE
+.PP
+"scsi /dev/sg0" (or other scsi device file)
+.RS
+Requests backend to open the named scsi device. Only useful if you have
+multiple compatible scanners connected to your system, and need to
+specify one. Probably should not be used with the other "scsi" line above.
+.RE
+.PP
+"usb 0x04c5 0x1042" (or other vendor/product ids)
+.RS
+Requests backend to search all usb buses in the system for a device
+which uses that vendor and product id. The device will then be queried
+to determine if it is a Fujitsu scanner.
+.RE
+.PP
+"usb /dev/usb/scanner0" (or other device file)
+.RS
+Some systems use a kernel driver to access usb scanners. This method is
+untested.
+.RE
+.PP
+The only configuration option supported is "buffer\-size=xxx", allowing you
+to set the number of bytes in the data buffer to something other than the
+compiled\-in default, 65536 (64K). Some users report that their scanner will
+"hang" mid\-page, or fail to transmit the image if the buffer is not large
+enough.
+.PP
+Note: This option may appear multiple times in the configuration file. It only
+applies to scanners discovered by 'scsi/usb' lines that follow this option.
+.PP
+Note: The backend does not place an upper bound on this value, as some users
+required it to be quite large. Values above the default are not recommended,
+and may crash your OS or lockup your scsi card driver. You have been
+warned.
+.PP
+
+.SH ENVIRONMENT
+The backend uses a single environment variable,
+.BR SANE_DEBUG_FUJITSU ,
+which enables debugging output to stderr. Valid values are:
+.PP
+.RS
+5 Errors
+.br
+10 Function trace
+.br
+15 Function detail
+.br
+20 Option commands
+.br
+25 SCSI/USB trace
+.br
+30 SCSI/USB writes
+.br
+31 SCSI/USB reads
+.br
+35 Useless noise
+.RE
+
+.SH KNOWN ISSUES
+Flatbed units may fail to scan at maximum area, particularly at
+high resolution.
+.PP
+Any model that does not support VPD during inquiry will not function until
+an override is added to the backend.
+.PP
+CCITT Fax compression used by older scanners is not supported.
+.PP
+JPEG output is supported by the backend, but not by the SANE protocol, so is
+disabled in this release. It can be enabled if you rebuild from source.
+.PP
+Network interfaces are not supported on any scanner model.
