First you should read the manpage of saned. Type "man saned" in your command 
prompt or "#saned" as a Konqueror URL ( looks much better ).

(1) The saned must be configured for use. Maybe your distribution has an 
option for this in it's setup tool. Others like Debian don't have so you 
should follow the explaination in the man page. 

(2) After that you should make your primax driver available to the other sane 
applications. Add an entry "primax" to /etc/sane.d/dll.conf.

(3) Make your net backend use the locale saned. Add a line "localhost" to 
/etc/sane.d/net.conf.

Here a picture how it should work:
  _______________         _______                  _________________
 |               |       |       |                |                 |
 | primax driver |<------| saned |-[tcp 6566].....| sane net driver |
 |_______________|       |_______|                |_________________|
                                    _______          ^
                                   |       |         |
                                   | XSane |---------'
                                   |_______|  

That should be all. I know I should write a HowTo and add it to the saneprimax 
package. I think I will do this if I have the time :-).

Gruss,

Andre
