0002 Scanning with Kooka and KScan
0003 =============================
0004 
0005 Kooka and KScan use the SANE library to attach to the scanner
0006 hardware.  It cannot be avoided by any library that a program sends
0007 commands to the scanner which can damage it. Especially very cheap
0008 scanners sometimes do not have a hardware protection against driving
0009 the bed to far, which can cause terrible noise and damage  :-(
0010 
0011 That is why you should be warned running Kooka or the KDE scanservice
0012 the first time. Even if there were no reportings that something bad
0013 happens to any scanner models using Kooka yet, but it can not be
0014 garanteed.
0015 
0016 Starting to scan the first time, be sure to sit next to your scanner
0017 having your hand on the power-off switch.  Switch off immediately if
0018 you hear unexpected noises or if something strange happens.
0019 
0020 If you find errors, please dont ask the SANE-people without having
0021 made sure that your error is _really_ a SANE error. Most probably, you
0022 found an KScan or Kooka-Error, which should be reported at 
0023 http://bugs.kde.org
