NAME

       sane-mustek_usb2 - SANE backend for SQ113 based USB flatbed scanners

DESCRIPTION

       The  sane-mustek_usb2  library  implements  a  SANE (Scanner Access Now
       Easy) backend that provides access to USB flatbed scanners based on the
       Service & Quality SQ113 chipset. At the moment, only the Mustek BearPaw
       2448 TA Pro is  supported.  It’s  planned  to  add  support  for  other
       scanners  that  are  based  on  the SQ113 and maybe SQ11 chip. For more
       details,      see      the      mustek_usb2      backend      homepage:
       http://www.meier-geinitz.de/sane/mustek_usb2-backend/.

       This is BETA software. Especially if you test new or untested scanners,
       keep your hand at the scanner’s plug and unplug it, if the  head  bumps
       at the end of the scan area.

       If  you  own  a  scanner  other than the ones listed on the mustek_usb2
       homepage that works with this backend,  please  let  me  know  this  by
       sending  the  scanner’s  exact model name and the USB vendor and device
       ids (e.g.  from  sane-find-scanner  or  syslog)  to  me.  Even  if  the
       scanner’s  name  is  only  slightly  different  from the models already
       listed as supported, please let me know.

LIBUSB ISSUES

       Please use libusb-0.1.8 or later. Without libusb or with  older  libusb
       versions  all  kinds  of trouble can be expected. The scanner should be
       found  by  sane-find-scanner  without  further  actions.  For   setting
       permissions and general USB information looks at sane-usb(5).

FILES

       /usr/lib/sane/libsane-mustek_usb2.a
              The static library implementing this backend.

       /usr/lib/sane/libsane-mustek_usb2.so
              The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems
              that support dynamic loading).

ENVIRONMENT

       SANE_DEBUG_MUSTEK_USB2
              If the library was compiled with  debug  support  enabled,  this
              environment  variable controls the debug level for this backend.
              Higher debug levels increase the verbosity of the output.

              Example: export SANE_DEBUG_MUSTEK_USB2=4

BUGS

       Please  contact  me  if  you   find   a   bug   or   missing   feature:
       <henning@meier-geinitz.de>.  Please  send  a  debug log if your scanner
       isn’t detected correctly (see SANE_DEBUG_MUSTEK_USB2 above).
