SnapScan Backend for SANE
This page provides information on the SnapScan Backend for SANE. This driver is compatible with a wide range of scanners from Afga, Acer, Benq, Vuego, Epson, Guillemot, Hercules and Mitsubishi.
Agfa has released the specs for their older SCSI scanner models. Other vendors have released no specs at all, so it is usually not possible to support all features of every scanner.
We used information provided by many existing web site to try to create an exhaustive page. Thanks to the original authors.
If you're looking for Windows drivers for your scanner please contact the vendors (Agfa, Acer / Benq, Epson) of your scanner directly. Please don't send me emails relating to Windows drivers.

Supported Scanners
Here is a list of scanners that have at least worked at one time in the past. I'd like to complete this list, so if you own one of the scanners below and there's a blank field, please send me a mail .
Benq (formerly known as Acer Peripherals) sell their scanners under a number of names, e.g. Vuego, Scan2Web, ScanPrisa and possibly others. The important part of the model name is the number which you'll find in the table below.
Parallel port scanners by Agfa use an unknown protocol for communication. There are currently no plans to support these scanners.
If you own a SCSI or USB scanner form Acer, Benq or Agfa which is not listed on this page and you're willing to run some tests, please send me a mail.

Note: The Agfa SnapScan Touch uses a different protocol and will not be supported by the Snapscan backend. It may possibly be supported by the HP3300 backend (see the SourceForge project and Bertrik Sikkens homepage for more information.
Getting it working
Get the latest version of SANE from the SANE homepage. Development of the SnapScan backend is now done in SANE CVS, so there's no need to download a separate source package for the backend anymore.
To correctly install your scanner, you should
1. detect your scanner device
machine# tools/find-scanner
find-scanner: found scanner "AGFA SNAPSCAN 310 1.20" at device
/dev/XXXXX
2. if you want your scanner to be recognized easily, create a link. For SCSI scanners use:
machine# ln -s /dev/XXXXX /dev/scanner
For USB scanners use:
machine# ln -s /dev/XXXXX /dev/usbscanner
3. you should now scan using xscanimage
machine$ xscanimage
