  "description_en": "panelbeater lets a Linux host respond to the Scan button on a ScanSnap iX1500 over Wi-Fi or USB. Over Wi-Fi it registers the host with the scanner; over USB it scans without registration. Its protocol notes document discovery, registration, document transfer and USB behavior, while the client assembles scanned pages into PDFs and can add an OCR text layer when ocrmypdf is installed.",
