FEDORA-2005-538
2005-01-06
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 3
Name : sane-backends
Version : 1.0.15
Release : 1.4
Summary : Scanner access software.
Description :
Scanner Access Now Easy (SANE) is a universal scanner interface. The SANE application programming interface (API) provides standardized access to any raster image scanner hardware (flatbed scanner, hand-held scanner, video and still cameras, frame-grabbers, etc.). If they're using SANE, developers can write image-processing applications without having to think about the peculiarities of individual devices. SANE also makes it possible to write a device driver once, which can then be used by any SANE-compliant application. SANE currently includes drivers for some Epson SCSI scanners, HP ScanJet SCSI scanners, Microtek SCSI scanners, Mustek SCSI flatbed scanners, PINT devices, most UMAX SCSI scanners, Connectix QuickCam, and other SANE devices via network. Note that this package does not enable network scanning by default. If you wish to enable network scanning, read the saned(1) manpage. If you'd like to develop SANE modules, you should also install the sane-backends-devel package.
