NAME
       sane-tamarack - SANE backend for Tamarack flatbed scanners

DESCRIPTION
       The  sane-tamarack  library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy)
       backend that provides access to the following  Tamarack  flatbed  scan-
       ners:

              Artiscan 6000C
              Artiscan 8000C
              Artiscan 12000C

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  de-
       vice  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 de-
       tails.

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

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

       @LIBDIR@/libsane-tamarack.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 config-
              uration 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  sepa-
              rator 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 or-
              der).

       SANE_DEBUG_TAMARACK
              If the library was compiled with debug support enabled, this en-
              vironment variable controls the debug level  for  this  backend.
              Higher debug levels increase the verbosity of the output.

              Example: export SANE_DEBUG_TAMARACK=4
