NAME

   sane-nec - SANE backend for NEC scanners

DESCRIPTION

   The  sane-nec library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend that provides access to NEC SCSI scanners.  This backend should be considered alpha-quality software!  In the
   current state it is known to work with PC-IN500/4C scanners. Other MultiReader scanner series are not supported. PC-IN 500/4C and MultiReader scanner are only sold  in  Japan  (except
   Multi Reader PetiScan).

   For other scanners, it may or may not work.

   The backend has the following known problems:

          - ColorLineart mode is not supported.

          - Device name is fixed to /dev/scanner

   At present, the following scanners are known to work with this backend.

          Vendor Product id
          ------ -----------
          NEC    PC-IN500/4C

FILES

   /etc/sane.d/nec.conf
          The backend configuration file.

   /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane/libsane-nec.a
          The static library implementing this backend.

   /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane/libsane-nec.so
          The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems that support dynamic loading).

ENVIRONMENT

   SANE_DEBUG_NEC
          If  the library was compiled with debug support enabled, this environment variable controls the debug level for this backend.  E.g., a value of 128 requests all debug output to
          be printed.  Smaller levels reduce verbosity.
