38 | <application>SANE</application> is short for Scanner Access Now Easy.
|
---|
39 | Scanner access, however, is far from easy, since every vendor has their
|
---|
40 | own protocols. The only known protocol that should bring some unity into
|
---|
41 | this chaos is the TWAIN interface, but this is too imprecise to allow a
|
---|
42 | stable scanning framework. Therefore, <application>SANE</application>
|
---|
43 | comes with its own protocol, and the vendor drivers can't be used.

170 | drivers, a parallel port scanner needs parallel port support (you should

171 | use enhanced EPP modes) and perhaps <ulink

---|
172 | url="http://cyberelk.net/tim/libieee1284/">libieee1284</ulink>, and a USB

173 | scanner will need the <xref linkend="libusb"/> package. For HP devices,

174 | you may need <ulink

175 | url="https://sourceforge.net/projects/hplip/files/hplip/">hplip</ulink>.
