Backend: hp_rts88xx

Link(s): http://hp44x0backend.sourceforge.net
Comment: This backend is not included in the sane-backends distribution at the request of its author. There is a lot of different hardware worldwide on the market and the backend can't cover all this different versions.

Backend: lhii

Link(s): http://www.sane-project.org/backends/lhii/lhii-v0.2.tgz
Comment: This backend is for old handscanners with proprietary adapter cards. You also need a kernel driver. You may find such drivers at that page: http://www.willamowius.de/scanner.html .

Comment: The backend is not included because it lacks code for safe detection of the scanner and documentation.

Backend: viceo (0.6)

Link(s): mailto:viceo@stevencherie.net, http://viceo.orcon.net.nz/
Comment: Supports E3 and E4 family USB scanners from Genius, Primax, IBM. The backend is not included because the license situation is unclear. Also it only works on Linux and needs a a patch for the kernel scanner driver which isn't available on 2.6.

Status:

Indicates how many of the features the device provides are supported by SANE.

• untested means the device may be supported but couldn't be tested. Be very careful and report success/failure.
• minimal means that the device is detected and scans at least in one mode. But the quality is bad or important features won't work.
• basic means it works at least in the most important modes but quality is not perfect.
• good means the device is usable for day-to-day work. Some rather exotic features may be missing.
• complete means the backends supports everything the device can do.
