The ESP 5250 and Hero 9.1 were used to develop the backend, +but other models may work. Please see the desc file. + +If you have a model not on that list, or reported as 'untested': the best way +to determine level of support is to test the scanner directly. + +.SH CONFIGURATION FILE +The configuration file "kodakaio.conf" is used to tell the backend how to look +for scanners, and provide options controlling the operation of the backend. +This file is read each time the frontend asks the backend for a list +of scanners, generally only when the frontend starts. + +.SH ENVIRONMENT +The backend uses a single environment variable, SANE_DEBUG_KODAKAIO, which +enables debugging output to stderr. + +.SH KNOWN ISSUES +Most hardware options are either not supported or not exposed for control by +the user, including: multifeed detection, image compression etc. +.PP + +.SH AUTHOR +P.
