Sane-Supported Scanners

This appendix provides a list of scanners supported by Sane 1.0.1.

Legend

 

You need to enable this backend in Sanes dll.conf (in the sane config directory). Otherwise, Sane will not enable your scanner.

There are four types of status:

· Stable: This is proven and works well if it's supported.

· Beta: Usually works just fine but it can sometimes hit a bug.

· Alpha: This may work but it needs more development and debugging.

· New: This package is so new that it doesn't have a qualified status.

The comments column often indicates how well the backend works. (It can be wise to run find-scanner to find out more about the notes.)
