xscan is essentially the gui version of scanimage. |
| 16 |
So I had the same trouble with scanimage. It would only do one page |
| 17 |
from the document tray. |

I had looked at the xscan docs before but didn't solve the problem. |

This time I looked some other docs and looked at the buttons on the gui |
| 21 |
and it seems I should have set the number of pages. |

Anyway it now works! The only problem is that the max resolution for |
| 24 |
multipage using the ADT is 300 dpi. Using the flatbed you can go much |
| 25 |
higher. |

Thank you all, this will prove very useful and will save considerable |
| 28 |
time in doing multipage docs. |
