An [Acronym] for __S__canner __A__ccess __N__ow __E__asy. A programming [API] to create a standard way of using document scanners. As well as [Linux]-based distributions, the library works on other [OperatingSystem]s such as [MacOSX], [NetBSD], [OpenBSD], and [OS/2]. A large number of scanners now have SANE drivers. As well as drivers that have been donated by hardware manufacturers and drivers that have been reverse-engineered, there are also drivers for non-scanner devices such as [Video4Linux] devices (eg TvTunerCards). See our ScannerNotes page for hints about using scanners under linux. You can see a definitive list of supported scanners at http://www.sane-project.org/ Front-end applications that can use SANE to get images include xsane(1) and [TheGIMP].
