NAME

       sane-ricoh - SANE backend for Ricoh flatbed scanners

DESCRIPTION

       The  sane-ricoh  library  implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend that provides access to the
       following Ricoh flatbed scanners:

              IS50
              IS60

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(5) for details.

FILES

       @CONFIGDIR@/ricoh.conf
              The backend configuration file (see also description of SANE_CONFIG_DIR below).

       @LIBDIR@/libsane-ricoh.a
              The static library implementing this backend.

       @LIBDIR@/libsane-ricoh.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.  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 @CONFIGDIR@.   If  the
              value  of  the  environment variable ends with the directory separator character, then the default
              directories are searched  after  the  explicitly  specified  directories.   For  example,  setting
              SANE_CONFIG_DIR to "/tmp/config:" would result in directories "tmp/config", ".", and "@CONFIGDIR@"
              being searched (in this order).

       SANE_DEBUG_RICOH
              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_RICOH=4
