sane-kodakaio(5) SANE Scanner Access Now Easy sane-kodakaio(5)
NAME
sane-kodakaio - SANE backend for Kodak aio printer / scanners
DESCRIPTION
The sane-kodakaio library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy)
backend which provides access to Kodak aio printer/scanners, like the
ESP and Hero series.
This document describes backend version 2.4, which is the first candi-
date for incorporation in sane-backends.
SUPPORTED HARDWARE
This version should support models of the Kodak ESP and Hero series, and
possibly some Advent AiO scanners. The ESP 5250 and Hero 9.1 were used
to develop the backend, but other models may work. Please see the sup-
ported devices list at http://www.sane-project.org/sane-backends.html#S-
KODAKAIO.
If you have a model not on that list, or reported as 'untested': the
best way to determine level of support is to test the scanner directly.
CONFIGURATION FILE
The configuration file kodakaio.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.
ENVIRONMENT
SANE_DEBUG_KODAKAIO
If the library was compiled with debug support enabled, this en-
vironment variable controls the debug level for this backend.
Higher debug levels increase the verbosity of the output.
KNOWN ISSUES
Most hardware options are either not supported or not exposed for con-
trol by the user, including: multifeed detection, image compression etc.
