the various X sane frontends dont seem to support duplex scanning. they do make the 'duplex' option available for you to select, but that is just a pass-thru from the backend.
i would recommend that you try the command line prog 'scanadf' it does duplex and uses the adf. i just used it (in combination with some perl scripts) to scan 1600 duplex pages on the fi-4120C. allan On Tue, 8 Apr 2003, Henning Meier-Geinitz wrote: > Hi, > > On Tue, Apr 08, 2003 at 06:40:46AM -0500, Peter Chen wrote: > > I read your previous emails.
