Depends on the saltedpasswords settings. With the default settings, it
should be enough to just md5 them and the the login process update them on
first login.
You can also use the API to hash them the same way like the login process
does. Please consult the API of the saltedpasswords extension.

The exact way depends on how you want to import the data.

This will be handled transparently for you if you use
TCEmain/DataHandler [1] to stored your data.

If you do this regularly, you may want to take a look at extension
external_import. The tutorial [2] actually shows an example of importing
FE users, but it should be similar for BE users.
