The document feeder (Multifeeder) does not select one page at the time (it feeds the whole stack at once). What could I be doing wrong?

I'm surprised, I think the document feeder is the best I've personally experienced of at least 4 printers of different makes. I would tell you about the same as Craig Kuper - thinking it is possibly the type of paper or try one of the techniques to create an air spacing temporarily between the pages. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

The only thing I can think is to air out the pages or fan them so they don't stick, it also could be the type of paper you are trying to scan, once in a great while this does happen to me but never more than 2 pages at one time on a pile of 15 pages, also make sure the top of the scanner is locked in place tightly sorry I don't have any better ideas...

Wish I could help but we have had nothing but trouble with this unit despite the high reviews from Amazon and CNET.

I have not had any problems with the document feeder taking the whole stack at once. It sounds like your machine may have a defect. The only thing I could suggest is to just lay your stack of documents into the feeder gently until you feel slight resistance and it stops you do not need to push it in to get it to start feeding.

The auto feed on the top only works for the scanner and copier. Envelopes and non standard paper have to go in the paper feeder. Hopefully that helps.

The default seems to be to scan multiple pages as one document but you can change that in the advanced settings. So the answer is that you can scan either way.

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.

I haven't done it myself, but the print menu offers it - looks like both single sheet and multiple, with a pronto when to reload the stack of paper

Yes, I have scanned 20-25 pages of different sizes into a single PDF. Need to be carefull with placement of pages in feeder to avoid jams.

I had the same problem. It just wouldn't feed. I inpected the paper and found that the top corner was slightly curled. I replaced it with brand new paper from a ream, still it wouldn't feed. I tried it over and over. I used a flashlight to see if there is any paper left inside the printer. I found none. So frustrated after wrestling with this problem for an hour, I shut off the printer and turn it back on. The problem went away. Who knows what really went wrong and what fixed it.

You can scan multiple pages into 1 document by:1. Put the multiple pages to be scanned in the tray on the top2. Go to MP Navigator3. Click on the "Save as PDF"4. under the "save Settings," select a name to save if under and a location.. 5. Save Settings -> "Save as Type" -> "PDF (Multiple Pages)" After scanning it will ask if you have any other pages you want to add or if you want to "exit" and you just exit..I use a Mac Book Pro, but I hope this work for you..

Not sure what you mean. I would say that the multi-feed paper tray can act a a single feed tray. I have reversed a document and printed on the other side or other end of a sheet by this process.

You are able to set the HP software included with the 3512 to scan to multi-page PDFs. However, it does not come with an automatic document feeder so you will need to replace the pages manually in order to scan additional pages.

No, it does not have a feeder. You need to scan pages individually. But if you don't scan lengthy documents often, it is fine.

If you are quick enough to slip one page in right behind the next as it is scanning it will. Otherwise it makes it separate pdf's.

Of course... That's the purpose of the document feeder. Additionally, it can scan both sides of the paper automatically. If you're comparing features on printers, make sure they can also do this. This feature is called 'duplexer'. FYI- I'm just as happy with this printer since I purchased it. I couldn't be happier.

I don't know why, mine has done this also, and then if I reprint the document it will print twice. I think it has something more to do with my slow connection.

I do not know the maximum number of pages the document feeder can handle however, I have placed 25 sheets without any issues that needed to scan the front and back of the page for a total of 50 images. The manufacturers documentation indicates 50 sheets is the maximum number of pages that can be placed in the feeder at one time. You can place in a certain number of sheets then scan the first group then place another group of pages in the feeder and the HP Easy Scan software will allow you to append to the generated PDF file.
