epsonscan2 - Simple Image Acquisition Copyright (C) 2018 SEIKO EPSON CORPORATION Please read out the license and Privacy Statement(http://download.ebz.epson.net/ps/linux/). SUMMARY ======= This software provides applications to easily turn hard-copy documents and imagery into formats that are more amenable to computer processing. Included are a native driver for a number of EPSON scanners and a compatibility driver to interface with software built around the SANE standard. LICENSING ========= This software is distributed under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License, version 2.1 or at your option any later version. A copy of this license can be found in the 'COPYING' file. USING THE SOFTWARE ================== The software can be started from a command-line with the `epsonscan2` command. This will automatically select a suitable application to control image acquisition and select the default device. The GUI supports selecting a different device should you want to. In case you installed from a binary package, chances are that the binary package maintainer integrated the software in the desktop menu system. If so, you can probably start up the GUI from there. NETWORK SUPPORT --------------- Most, if not all, of the above devices can be used via a network connection. If you want to do so with this software, install the non-free-plugin package. This plugin is available via the EPSON Download Center[1].

To make getting all that software on your system a bit easier, the sources include a script to install all these packages for you (install-deps).
