+.IX sane\-hp4200
+.SH NAME
+sane\-hp4200 \- SANE backend for Hewlett-Packard 4200 scanners
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.B sane\-hp4200
+library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend that provides
+access to the following Hewlett-Packard USB flatbed scanners:
+.PP
+.RS
+ScanJet 4200 C
+.br
+ScanJet 4200 Cxi
+.br
+ScanJet 4200 Cse
+.RE
+.PP
+More details can be found on the hp4200 backend homepage 
+.IR http://hp4200\-backend.sourceforge.net/ .
+.PP
+This is BETA software. Keep your hand at the scanner's plug and unplug it, if
+the head bumps at the end of the scan area. 
+.PP
+If you own a scanner other than the ones listed above that works with this
+backend, please let us know this by sending the scanner's exact model name and
+the USB vendor and device ids (e.g. from
+.IR /proc/bus/usb/devices ,
+.I sane\-find\-scanner
+or syslog) to us. Even if the scanner's name is only slightly different from
+the models mentioned above, please let us know.
+.PP
+
+.SH CONFIGURATION
+The contents of the
+.I hp4200.conf
+file is a list of usb lines containing vendor and product ids that correspond
+to USB scanners. The file can also contain the names of device files that
+correspond to an HP 4200 scanner.  Empty lines and lines starting with a hash
+mark (#) are ignored.  The scanners are autodetected by
+.B usb vendor_id product_id
+statements which are already included into
+.IR hp4200.conf .
+"vendor_id" and "product_id" are hexadecimal numbers that identify the
+scanner. If autodetection does not work, add the device name of your scanner
+to the configuration file, e.g.
+.IR /dev/usb/scanner0 .
+.PP
+
+.SH FILES
+.TP
+.I @CONFIGDIR@/hp4200.conf
+The backend configuration file (see also description of
+.B SANE_CONFIG_DIR
+below).
+.TP
+.I @LIBDIR@/libsane\-hp4200.a
+The static library implementing this backend.
+.TP
+.I @LIBDIR@/libsane\-hp4200.so
+The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems that
+support dynamic loading).
+.SH ENVIRONMENT
+.TP
+.B SANE_CONFIG_DIR
+This environment variable specifies the list of directories that may
+contain the configuration file.  Under UNIX, the directories are
+separated by a colon (`:'), under OS/2, they are separated 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 @CONFIGDIR@.  If the value of the
+environment variable ends with the directory separator character, then
+the default directories are searched after the explicitly specified
+directories.  For example, setting
+.B SANE_CONFIG_DIR
+to "/tmp/config:" would result in directories "tmp/config", ".", and
+"@CONFIGDIR@" being searched (in this order).
+.TP
+.B SANE_DEBUG_HP4200
+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_HP4200=4

+.SH BUGS
+Tested only with Linux.
+.PP
+Only 8 bit color mode works.
+.PP
+Scanning is slow due to backtracking.
