Graphical user interfaces Several user interfaces have been written to combine SANE with an easy user method of controlling it. The frontend only has to obtain the set of options from the user once. Using the SANE API, the frontend simply has to 'play back' the same set of options for each scan, driving the document feed in between scans to load the next sheet of paper. Many scanners support the attachment of document feeders which allow a large number of sheets of paper to be automatically scanned in succession. Various types of unsupervised batch scanning are also possible with a minimum of support needed in the backend (driver). Similarly, the 'net' backend passes requests and data between the local frontend and the remote host. The saned daemon acts as a frontend locally, but simply passes requests and data between the network connections and the local scanner. On client machines a 'net' backend (driver) connects to the remote host to fetch the scanner options, and perform previews and scans. On a host with a scanner, the saned daemon runs and handles network requests. One consequence of this separation is that network scanning is easily implemented with no special handling in either the frontends or backends.
Other options can be presented using GUI elements appropriate to their type e.g., sliders, drop-down lists, etc. Each option has a name, and information about its type, units, and range or possible values (e.g., enumerated list).īy convention there are several 'well known' options that frontends can supply using convenient interaction e.g., the scan area options can be set by dragging a rectangular outline over a preview image. These options specify parameters such as the resolution of the scan, the scan area, colour model, etc.
Whereas a TWAIN driver handles the user interface as well as communications with the scanner hardware, a SANE driver only provides an interface with the hardware and describes a number of 'options' which drive each scan.
