Canon MX860 ADF – the last laugh

Not so rosy…

Although the Duplex ADF is great, I’ve just realised that it will turn over each page individually, as it is spit out, for Duplex scanning only. So: if you put in 5 duplex pages in page order 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10;  then it will come out in order 2,1,4,3,6,5,8,7,10,9.

If you want to keep the documents afterwards – not great!

I guess you could put either manually flip them over;  or scan them again to reorder them(!);  but perhaps easiest is just to use MS Office Scanning, which scans in Simplex, but will run through one side, and then the other. So – again – not much smarter than a far simpler printer!
