.TH sane\-s9036 5 "14 Jul 2008" "@PACKAGEVERSION@" "SANE Scanner Access Now Easy"
.IX sane\-s9036
.SH NAME
sane\-s9036 \- SANE backend for Siemens 9036 flatbed scanners
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.B sane\-s9036
library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend that
provides access to Siemens 9036 flatbed scanners.

.SH "DEVICE NAMES"
This backend expects device names of the form:
.PP
.RS
.I special
.RE
.PP
Where
.I special
is the path-name for the special device that corresponds to a
SCSI scanner. The special device name must be a generic SCSI device or a
symlink to such a device.  The program
.BR sane\-find\-scanner (1)
helps to find out the correct device. Under Linux, such a device name
could be
.I /dev/sga
or
.IR /dev/sge ,
for example.  See
.BR sane\-scsi (5)
for details.

.SH FILES
.TP
.I @CONFIGDIR@/s9036.conf
The backend configuration file (see also description of
.B SANE_CONFIG_DIR
below).
.TP
.I @LIBDIR@/libsane\-s9036.a
The static library implementing this backend.
.TP
.I @LIBDIR@/libsane\-s9036.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
.IR @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
.IR "tmp/config" ,
.IR "." ,
and
.I "@CONFIGDIR@"
being searched (in this order).
.TP
.B SANE_DEBUG_S9036
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_S9036=4
