+    (description ; no @acronym{eSCL} because the meaning isn't officially known
+     "This SANE backend lets you scan documents and images from scanners and
+multi-function printers that speak eSCL (marketed as ``AirScan'') or
+@acronym{WSD, Web Services for Devices} (or ``WS-Scan'').
+
+Both are vendor-neutral protocols that allow ``driverless'' scanning over IPv4
+and IPv6 networks without the vendor-specific drivers that make up most of the
+sane-backends collection.  This is similar to how most contemporary printers
+speak the universal @acronym{IPP, Internet Printing Protocol}.
+
+Only scanners that support eSCL will also work over USB.  This requires a
+suitable IPP-over-USB daemon like ipp-usb to be installed and configured.
+
+Any eSCL or WSD-capable scanner should just work.  sane-airscan automatically
+discovers and configures devices, including which protocol to use.  It was
+successfully tested with many devices from Brother, Canon, Dell, Kyocera,
+Lexmark, Epson, HP, OKI, Panasonic, Pantum, Ricoh, Samsung, and Xerox, with both
+WSD and eSCL.")
