Is there any way to use a SANE scanner over a network? Is there some sort of TWAIN driver for use with Windows or a SANE driver for Linux so that I could access a SANE scanner over the network?
I would write my own utility if I have too. If I need to write my own, can someone point me to a good TWAIN driver tutorial or something on how to write a TWAIN driver.
Yes, saned (the sane daemon) on Linux permits this. If you have a scanner installed on Linux, odds are you already have sane and saned. Try a 'man saned'.
