API library for scanners -- extra backends

SANE stands for "Scanner Access Now Easy" and is an application programming interface (API) that provides standardized access to any raster image scanner hardware (flatbed scanner, hand-held scanner, video- and still-cameras, frame-grabbers, etc.). The SANE standard is free and its discussion and development are open to everybody. The current source code is written to support several operating systems, including GNU/Linux, OS/2, Win32 and various Unices and is available under the GNU General Public License (commercial applications and backends are welcome, too, however).

This package includes some backends that are not yet included into the official SANE distribution. Currently, they are : 

  * epkowa (some EPSON scanners)
  * geniusvp2 (Genius ColorPage-Vivid Pro II)
  * hp_rts88xx (HP ScanJet 4400C, HP ScanJet 4470C)
  * hp3900 (HP ScanJet 3970C, HP ScanJet 4070, HP ScanJet 4370)
