#scanner

Frage an meine lieben Bürokratie-Freunde: Könnt ihr mir einen #Scanner mit Einzug empfehlen?

Ich habe vor, meinen Dokumentenordner endlich Mal zu digitalisieren, und das alte Flachbett was ich habe macht mich fertig. Ich will was effizienteres, aber kenne mich da gar nicht aus. Sind moderne Scanner genauso grauenhaft, wie die Drucker? Hat da jemand vielleicht viel Erfahrung mit gemacht?

Gerne boosten!

I have a very nice HP Color LaserJet MFP M283fdw. It has a scanner with an automatic document feeder.

On the Linux side, I usually use `xsane` to scan. This works when I put a document on the document glass. But it doesn't work with the ADF. When I tell xsane to use the ADF, the scanner sucks the documents through the ADF as it should, but then xsane pops up an error dialog that says "failed to start scanner : document feeder out of documents" and doesn't seem to have any scans.

I *did* get it to work with the `scanadf` command, so there's nothing really wrong, just some software confusion.

I have two questions:
* Is there something I can do with `xsane` to make it handle the ADF correctly?
* Is there an alternative to `xsane` that might work instead?
