NAME

       sane-s9036 - SANE backend for Siemens 9036 flatbed scanners

DESCRIPTION

       The  sane-s9036  library  implements  a  SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy)
       backend that provides access to Siemens 9036 flatbed scanners.

DEVICE NAMES

       This backend expects device names of the form:

              special

       Where special is the path-name for the special device that  corresponds
       to  a  SCSI scanner. The special device name must be a generic SCSI de-
       vice or a symlink to such a device.  The  program  sane-find-scanner(1)
       helps  to  find out the correct device. Under Linux, such a device name
       could be /dev/sga or /dev/sge, for example.  See sane-scsi(5)  for  de-
       tails.

FILES

       /usr/local/etc/sane.d/s9036.conf
              The   backend   configuration  file  (see  also  description  of
              SANE_CONFIG_DIR below).

       /usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-s9036.a
              The static library implementing this backend.

       /usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-s9036.so
              The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems
              that support dynamic loading).

ENVIRONMENT

       SANE_CONFIG_DIR
              This environment variable specifies the list of directories that
              may contain the configuration file.  On *NIX systems, the direc-
              tories are separated by a colon (`:'), under OS/2, they are sep-
              arated 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  /usr/lo-
              cal/etc/sane.d.   If  the value of the environment variable ends
              with the directory separator character, then the default  direc-
              tories  are searched after the explicitly specified directories.
              For example, setting SANE_CONFIG_DIR to "/tmp/config:" would re-
              sult in directories tmp/config, ., and /usr/local/etc/sane.d be-
              ing searched (in this order).

       SANE_DEBUG_S9036
              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.

              Example: export SANE_DEBUG_S9036=4
