I'm not sure that I understand what you are trying to accomplish but you can scan as many documents as will fit on the glass and then need to crop the scans using a third party image processing program (I use Photoscape, it's a free download) to crop the scanned images into individual jpeg files to store. There is no "autoscan" software available with the Mustek software.

Like most graphic arts flatbeds, the Mustek is designed to scan individual pieces of artwork, one at a time. If you wish to scan multiple-page documents and have them appear in one file, such as a PDF, you are likely better served with a document feed-type scanner, such as an HP OfficeJet, or use a sheet-fed scanner, such as the Fujitsu ScanSnap, Doxie or Neat devices (all available on Amazon). Good luck!

You can do this with the capture software on a Mac (I have never used it with Windows, but assume it functions similarly). Simultanioisly scan of multiple documents is definitely not a hardware based function on this scanner.

You could scan as many documents as would fit on the scanner, but it only scans the glass once, so you would have multiple documents on a single image. You would have to edit it after that in another program to separate them.

I can only tell you that I laid several photos on the scanner expecting to rescan for each photo I needed. However, when I hit preview, each photo appeared as a separate smaller window.

No need to scan each page separately. Just load all pages (up to about 25 sheets) in the feeder and it scans them all as a single doc. I highly recommend this scanner. I handles the target pages quickly and efficiently, and if there's printing on the backside, it automatically scans that too. I haven't had a paper jam yet, and I use the "searchable pdf" option for output. I've used a much larger (and more expensive) Canon DR2020DU scanner for years, and this HP is much more reliable and intuitive.

It can definitely handle scanning multiple pages into a single document. I believe it can scan multiple pages and place each one into a different document, but I have not yet had the need for that. ** I will amend my answer to say that it can scan multiple pages into one document as long as you select a target that supports multiple pages: PDF or TIFF, not PNG or JPG. I checked the software configuration, and there are two options for PDFs and TIFFs: "Create a file with all pages" or "Select number to make file" - the second one requires specifying a number. Based on my reading it looks like the number is the number of pages it will bundle together to create a new document. By default, this is "1" -- so each page becomes its own document.

I want multiple pages scanned but into individual documents. WIll this do that?

Yes, there is an insert that allows you to scan four slides at once but, more importantly, saves them as individual separate images. It's quite handy and is much faster than doing one slide at a time. One thing to keep in mind is that this is a full size scanner and will take a sizable footprint on your desk, approximately 18.5 X 10.5 inches.

If you're asking if it can scan both sides of a page simultaneously, the answer is no. It can only scan one side at a time. You must turn the page you want to scan over in order to scan that side too. There is free software that you can download from the internet that will allow you to bind multiple pages into one document with as many pages as you need. I hope this answers your question.

I have had no problems with scanning. You can preselect paper size on the computer driver before you select scan and it will scan the whole document.

You can do both if you want. There is a way to separate Fter you have scanned. I just scan those that are part of one document as I find it easier for me. It really is a nice machine.

I don't think that there is any specific number of scans that you can do in a month/week/day. Just remember that it will not scan more than about 8 or 10 pages maximum at a time. I try to keep my actual pages around 6-8 and then you just keep telling it to "continue" as you add more pages.

Don't know what "Duplex" scanning is, but you can scan/copy from multiple pages in the auto feed tray

You can scan multiple pages to a single file or multiple files. It's perfect for my home and small business office.

When you scan an item it gives you the option of continuing with an additional item or complete the scan. Therefore if you have several items you want to scan they can all be on the same pdf file.

No, it only has one sensor so it will only scan one side at a time. The software does allow you to combine those scans into a single document.

You have the option of sheet feed or old fashioned way. I need to verify again but I believe scanning jpg you cannot do sheet feed.

I scans one page at a time. After that you will have the choice to "staple" all copies together. Lots of option bi love this thing.

I have scanned in single sheets and put each as a document into a file. I have not scanned in multiple sheets as one document to put in a file, so I don't know if that's possible. Sorry I can't help more.

It does multi-page scanning, but I haven't figured out how to get the multiple pages into one document. I don't use the fax, but I tried it out, and it works fine.
