.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm uscanner
|
|
.Nd minimal USB support for scanners
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Cd "uscanner* at uhub?"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver provides minimal support for USB scanners.
|
|
The driver recognizes a number of USB scanners, but to
|
|
actually scan anything there needs to be software that knows
|
|
about the particular scanner. The SANE package provides
|
|
support for some scanners.
|
|
.Sh HARDWARE
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver works with the following scanners:
|
|
.Ss Epson
|
|
.Bl -tag -width -offset indent -compact
|
|
.It GT-7000
|
|
.It Perfection 610U
|
|
.It 636U
|
|
.It 1200U
|
|
.It 1200U Photo
|
|
.El
|
|
.Ss HP
|
|
.Bl -tag -width -offset indent -compact
|
|
.It 4100C
|
|
.It 5200C
|
|
.It 6300C
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Many other scanners are recognized, but there is no software support
|
|
for them yet.

|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
This driver should not really exist. The scanners it recognizes
|
|
can be accessed through the
|
|
.Xr ugen 4
|
|
driver instead. A proper scanner driver would provide a uniform
|
|
interface to scanners instead of exposing the innards of the
|
|
scanner.
|
|
The reason the driver exists is to have something that is compatible
|
|
with the Linux driver.
