sane-escl - SANE backend for eSCL scanners

The sane-escl library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend that provides access to eSCL protocol scanners.

Currently, the following models work with this backend (This list is not exhaustive):

BROTHER DCP-L2530
CANON IR C3520
CANON PIXMA TS3100, TS3150, TS3300, TS3151, TS3350, TS3351,
CANON PIXMA TS3352, TS6150, TS8050, TS9100, TR4540, TR8500,
CANON PIXMA TR8520
EPSON ET3740, ET4750
HP LASERJET MFP M28W, OFFICEJET 4630, OFFICEJET PRO 8610
RICOH SP3710S
XEROX VERSALINK C7220

The "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 "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.

/etc/sane.d/escl.conf
The backend configuration file.
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane/libsane-escl.a
The static library implementing this backend.
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane/libsane-escl.so
The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems that support dynamic loading).

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.
