[NTLUG:Discuss] Multi-page scanning using an ADF

[Leroy Tennison]

Testing an HP 5590 and having trouble doing multi-page scans.  I'm 
running SuSE 12.2 and have AcquireImages, Kooka, Scanlite, Simple Scan 
and Xsane installed.  All either explicitly or implicitly recognize the 
ADF.  Ironically, only Simple Scan managed to scan multiple pages (when 
I selected "All Pages from Feeder"). AcquireImages said it scanned the 
document (but the file was empty) and at least previewed the first page 
(while having the scanner pass both pages through).  Kooka at least 
successfully scanned the first page and captured a small amount of the 
second but didn't understand two pages (even though the source was 
ADF).  Scanlite scanned the first page, prompted for a filename and then 
pulled the second page through without scanning it.  Xsane scanned only 
the first page (pulling the other one through) regardless of whether I 
used Preview or Multi-page mode.

Am I doing something fundamentally wrong?  I suspected the scanner until 
Simple Scan worked.  Do I need to be using another program such as VueScan?
