    Scanning How-Tos

    How do I scan using an ADF (auto document feeder)?

    When scanning with the ADF, you must use "batch mode". In 'scanimage', use a command line such as:

    $ scanimage -b --batch-scan=yes > output.pnm
    

    In XSane, use the provided batch scan mode.

    How do I scan using the ADF in duplex mode?
