sane-sm3840(5)		  SANE Scanner Access Now Easy		  sane-sm3840(5)

NAME
     sane-sm3840 - SANE backend for Microtek scanners with SCAN08 USB chip

DESCRIPTION
     The sane-sm3840 library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend
     that provides access to some Microtek scanners with the SCAN08 USB chip.

     There exist backends for Microtek scanners with SCSI command set.	Refer to
     sane-microtek(5) and sane-microtek2(5) for details.

     There also exists a Microtek 3600 series driver, see sane-sm3600(5) for de-
     tails.

     At  present,  the following scanners are known positively to work with this
     backend:

	    Vendor     Product ID:     Remark:
	    --------   --------------  -----------
	    Microtek   ScanMaker 3840  All modes OK
	    Microtek   ScanMaker 4800  All modes OK

     If you own a Microtek scanner with the SCAN08  chip  other  than  the  ones
     listed  above,  it may or may not work with SANE.	Feel free to contact the
     backend author (earle@ziplabel.com) to report results with scanners not  on
     the list.

FRONTEND OPTIONS
     The following options are supported by the sane-sm3840 driver:

     --mode color|gray|lineart|halftone
	    Color or grayscale mode.

     --resolution 150|300|600|1200
	    Pixels per inch for scans.

     --depth 8|16
	    Note that the least significant bits of 16bpp mode may be noise.

     --brightness 1..4096
	    Higher numbers increase brightness of returned image.

     --contrast 0.1..9.9
	    Larger numbers decrease contrast of returned image.

     --lamp-timeout 1..15
	    Time in minutes until the lamp is turned off after a scan.

CONFIGURATION
     This backend does not support a configuration file right now.

FILES
     /usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-sm3840.a
	    The static library implementing this backend.

     /usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-sm3840.so
	    The  shared  library  implementing	this backend (present on systems
	    that support dynamic loading).

ENVIRONMENT
     SANE_DEBUG_SM3840
	    If the library was compiled with debug support enabled,  this  envi-
	    ronment variable controls the debug level for this backend.  E.g., a
	    value  of 128 requests all debug output to be printed.  Smaller lev-
	    els reduce verbosity. To see error messages on stderr  set	SANE_DE-
	    BUG_SM3840 to 1.
