NAME
       sane-s9036  -  SANE backend for Siemens 9036 flatbed scan-
       ners

DESCRIPTION
       The sane-s9036 library implements a SANE  (Scanner  Access
       Now  Easy)  backend  that  provides access to Siemens 9036
       flatbed scanners.


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 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(i)
       for details.


FILES
       /etc/sane.d/s9036.conf
              The backend configuration file (see  also  descrip-
              tion of SANE_CONFIG_DIR below).

       /usr/lib/sane/libsane-s9036.a
              The static library implementing this backend.

       /usr/lib/sane/libsane-s9036.so
              The  shared library implementing this backend (pre-
              sent on systems that support dynamic loading).

ENVIRONMENT
       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 /etc/sane.d.  If the value of the
              environment variable ends with the directory  sepa-
              rator  character,  then the default directories are
              searched after the  explicitly  specified  directo-
              ries.   For  example,  setting  SANE_CONFIG_DIR  to
              "/tmp/config:"   would   result   in    directories
              "tmp/config", ".", and "/etc/sane.d" being searched
              (in this order).

       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
