The sane-escl backend for SANE supports AirScan/eSCL devices that announce themselves on mDNS as _uscan._utcp or _uscans._utcp. If the device is available, the sane-escl backend recovers these capacities. The user configures and starts scanning. A list of devices that use the eSCL protocol can be found at https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201311.

While these devices are expected to work, your mileage may vary. iykyk 🫶

🎀 FILES 🎀

  • /etc/sane.d/escl.conf — the backend configuration file, aka where the settings live.
  • /usr/lib/sane/libsane-escl.a — the static library implementing this backend.
  • /usr/lib/sane/libsane-escl.so — the shared library implementing this backend (present on systems that support dynamic loading).

🌸 ENVIRONMENT 🌸

  • SANE_DEBUG_ESCL — if the library was compiled with debug support enabled, this environment variable controls the debug level for this backend. E.g., a value of 128 requests all debug output to be printed. Smaller levels reduce verbosity.
