sane-ricoh2(5)

🎀 sane-ricoh2 — okay bestie, let's talk scanners 🎀

So this is the manual page for sane-ricoh2 from the SANE Scanner Access Now Easy fam 💅 she's a section 5 manpage, and she's here to explain the Ricoh backend. Buckle up 🦋

---

✨ NAME ✨

sane-ricoh2 — literally the SANE backend for Ricoh flatbed scanners, no cap 🔥

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

The sane-ricoh2 library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend — think of it as the little translator that lets your scanning programs actually talk to the hardware 🫶 — and it gives you access to these Ricoh flatbed scanners:

SG-3110SFNw
SG-3100SNw
SP-100SU
SP-111SU (SP-112SU)

Periodt. That's the whole guest list 👑

---

💖 FILES 💖

• /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-ricoh2.a — the static library that implements this backend. Old school, linked right in 🧚
• /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-ricoh2.so — the shared library that implements this backend. This one's only present on systems that support dynamic loading, iykyk ✨

---

⭐ OPTIONS ⭐

So here's the vibe: the options this backend supports can be picked either through command line options to programs like scanimage(1), or through the GUI elements in programs like xscanimage(1) or xsane(1). Your choice, main character 💅

The following options are supported by ricoh2:

• --mode color|gray — color or grayscale mode. Pick your aesthetic 🎨
• --resolution 300|600 — DPI resolution. 300 or 600, that's the menu, bestie 📏

---

🦋 ENVIRONMENT 🦋

• SANE_DEBUG_RICOH2 — if the library was compiled with debug support enabled, this environment variable controls the debug level for this backend. Higher debug levels increase the verbosity of the output — so more debug level = more yapping 😭🔊

---

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

sane(7), sane-usb(5), scanimage(1), xscanimage(1), xsane(1)

Go read those too, they're iconic in their own right 👑
