Does it do 1-pass 2-sided scanning when using the flatbed, or only with the ADF?

I've never in my life seen any machine do that with the flatbed. It is with the ADF only.

I have only scanned the checks on a one-sided basis, but it feeds and scans checks great. It also scans double-sided great, so I'm assuming yes

Yes; it actually takes *three* passes. I tried it out in a local store. It scans the first side, then turns it over and scans the second. Then it turns it over a second time, taking a third pass so that it comes out the same orientation it would have if you were just scanning one side. Presumably, this final pass can be at the full speed, but it does take (waste?) some time. I wish they'd put in a true two-sided scanner. I really like the Epson print quality, but the Brother equivalents offer both one-pass duplex scanning and 11x17 printing which is tempting.

No - unfortunately not do duplex scanning. I assumed it did when I purchased it. I should have been as smart as you to ask.It is a great all-in-one for everything else, but just lacks that one feature.

This printer has a one pass two sided scan feature when using the document feeder. The printing part is a duplexing though so it does not print on both sides at the same time but print one side then reverse feeds and print s on the next side.

Hi Vaughn,It is a 1-sided scanner, although the software allows you to connect subsequent scans into one document.

Thank you for your quick reply. What about the MF4690? I posted a similar question regarding that one. It seems much newer. Does it happen to have a function that somehow supports duplex scanning, without having to *manually* re-order the pages?

Any idea how many sheets the ADF can hold for scanning and faxing? Someone wrote that it only holds a single sheet, but I can't believe a MFP now only accommodates a single sheet at a time?

Yes, you can. In fact, you can scan double sided pages. On the screen where you identify the destination of your scan, touch the gear in the bottom right hand corner which gets you to the "options" screen. Page down to the second page to "Duplex." Touch that line and you can toggle it from one sided to two.

I have a Epson Workforce GT-1500. It has an automatic feed feature, but to get both sides of a paper. I put my documents in the automatic feeder and then run them through again with the pages turned over. Mine scans with face up position. It is my understanding of manual duplex scanning is to print on front and then manually turn it over to print on back side.

My experience is that it does not (and/or cannot) scan both sides at once. There is a separate tab for capturing the image from the back side of a card.

I use it with a brother printer and scanner that will print on both sides and has a sheet feed scanner. My scanner does not scan double sided documents without reloading, though. So, if your asking if the software can handle double sided scanning, I see no reason that it could not since that is a hardware issue. If your scanner can scan double sided, the information will be sent to document center in that order. I hope that helps. By the way, I think the software is excellent.

The scanner is a fairly basic flatbed. It has no sheet-feeder, if that's what is meant by the question. You can scan multiple pictures simultaneously if you put several photos on the bed together.

While I do not use the ADF a lot, it works fine when I need it. It just does what it is supposed to do. I do use the flatbed a lot and love this scanner.

I don't scan, so I don't know the whole answer, but it does NOT do duplex copying. For this reason, I kept its predecessor, a DCP8065DN, which lacked fax capability and color.

K Jansen is correct - the duplex scan process works through the automatic document feeder (ADF). Lots of action!

I think its only double sided on printing and not scanning. You would need to either glass scan or adf the item in and turn it over if your using paperport. Paper port if you use the wizard has a "button to scan other side" so is not auto double side scanning. You gotta add a couple hundred on bother MFC's for auto dual scanning.
