NAME

       sane-kodakaio - SANE backend for Kodak aio printer / scanners

DESCRIPTION

       The  sane-kodakaio  library  implements  a  SANE  (Scanner  Access Now Easy) backend which
       provides access to Kodak aio printer/scanners, like the ESP and Hero series.

       This  document  describes  backend  version  2.4,  which  is  the  first   candidate   for
       incorporation in sane-backends.

SUPPORTED HARDWARE

       This  version  should  support  models of the Kodak ESP and Hero series, and possibly some
       Advent AiO scanners. The ESP 5250 and Hero 9.1 were used to develop the backend, but other
       models   may   work.   Please   see   the   supported  devices  list  at  http://www.sane-
       project.org/sane-backends.html#S-KODAKAIO.

       If you have a model not on that list, or reported as 'untested': the best way to determine
       level of support is to test the scanner directly.

CONFIGURATION FILE

       The configuration file kodakaio.conf is used to tell the backend how to look for scanners,
       and provide options controlling the operation of the backend.  This file is read each time
       the  frontend  asks  the  backend for a list of scanners, generally only when the frontend
       starts.

ENVIRONMENT

       SANE_DEBUG_KODAKAIO
              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.

KNOWN ISSUES

       Most hardware options are either not supported or not exposed for  control  by  the  user,
       including: multifeed detection, image compression etc.
