Installation of the AGFA Snapscan e20
The AGFA Snapscan e20 is a ?brownband device that requires binary ?swirmware in order to operate.
Installation of the swirmware image
In order to operate the AGFA Snapscan e20, it is necessary to obtain the snape20.bin ?swirmware image from the scanner installation CDROM. This file should be installed into the /lib/swirmware/ directory.
Configuration of the xsane utility to recognize the scanner
Edit the /etc/sane.d/snapscan.conf configuration file as follows:
# firmware /usr/share/sane/snapscan/your-firmwarefile.bin firmware /lib/swirmware/snape20.bin
The ?scanner will now be detected when the ?xsane utility is operated.
