sane-tamarack(5)	  SANE Scanner Access Now Easy		sane-tamarack(5)

NAME
     sane-tamarack - SANE backend for Tamarack flatbed scanners

DESCRIPTION
     The sane-tamarack library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) back-
     end that provides access to the following Tamarack flatbed scanners:

	    Artiscan 6000C
	    Artiscan 8000C
	    Artiscan 12000C

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 device 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 details.

FILES
     /usr/local/etc/sane.d/tamarack.conf
	    The backend configuration file (see also  description  of  SANE_CON-
	    FIG_DIR below).

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

     /usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-tamarack.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  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 /usr/local/etc/sane.d.	 If  the
	    value  of the environment variable ends with the directory separator
	    character, then the default directories are searched after	the  ex-
	    plicitly  specified  directories.	For  example,  setting SANE_CON-
	    FIG_DIR to "/tmp/config:" would result in directories tmp/config, .,
	    and /usr/local/etc/sane.d being searched (in this order).

     SANE_DEBUG_TAMARACK
	    If the library was compiled with debug support enabled,  this  envi-
	    ronment  variable controls the debug level for this backend.  Higher
	    debug levels increase the verbosity of the output.

	    Example: export SANE_DEBUG_TAMARACK=4
