 Awesome scanner once you get the issues worked out March 10, 2006

I agree that I did have some problems with paper jams in the ADF. But then I noticed that it seemed to mostly happen with smaller width paper (11" long, but less than 8.5" wide) and legal size documents when trying to duplex. Well, then I read the manual (duh!) and it clearly states that the scanner is not set up to duplex legal size documents or unusual sized paper. So I thought that was a problem.
But I am trying to scan all my documents into electronic form and so the scanner is only part of the solution -- electronic document management software is the other part. I got PaperPort Professional 10, set it up with the ISIS driver (the TWAIN driver is not so good) using the PaperPort scanner setup utility running all scanner tests -- and it started working perfectly! The key with legal and odd size documents is not to duplex! Scan one side with the ADF then turn the documents over, put them back in the feeder and let PaperPort do the collation. It works GREAT!
This is EXACTLY the solution I have been looking for since I started scanning in all my paper documents about 5 years and many failed hardware/software solutions ago.
I am using none of the software that came with the scanner, just downloaded the latest drivers directly from the HP website.
The only issue I have noticed (which could explain why some people think the ADF is "broken") is that when a jam occurs (which hasn't happened since I started doing things using my new procedure) is that the ADF gets into a wierd state where it thinks that there is no paper in it even though there paper there. The fix: unplug/plug in (not turn off) the scanner and let it reinitialize. There are rollers in the ADF which get stuck in the down position during a jam that don't ever seem to reset unless you power cycle it (and you can't really turn off the scanner with the power switch -- it just puts it into standby mode).

If you are looking for a reliable scanner with a duplex automatic document feeder, save your money and sanity and keep looking.
The included software is inflexible (global setting for duplex is either on, or off, you can't select the duplex setting without going through 5 menus and 8 clicks to turn duplex scanning on and off)
Save the hair thats left on your head by avoiding this scanner and the included automatic document feeder jammer. Not only are the paper jams frequent (on the type of stuff you would regularly scan, I'm talking about bank statements that come right out of the post mail - not tissue paper) but a paper jam can actually destroy your documents if they get stuck mid-scan. There is no easy release button or pull. Pull tightly, and hope that the bottom advice piece of your phone bill does not take up permanent residence in the duplex bay of your scanner.
A software update will not fix the paper jam feature, so just look elsewhere.
HP, if you are reading, allow the user to select duplex or non-duplex for each scan.

I got this to help me scan paper documents to save as pdfs to de-paper my office. Except for some difficulties clearing the rare paper jams, it seems to be fine mechanically.
I would be satisfied except I haven't been able to make it play nice with Acrobat v. 7 for Windows XP SP2. The HP-supplied software will produce pdfs, but of generally poor quality compared to what the scanner can do driven from Acrobat. The problem is trying to get a scan of both sides of the paper from the ADF. The recommended TWAIN driver (the "Document" TWAIN) that comes with it simply won't do this from Acrobat, but it works fine for single-sided scans. Using the other TWAIN driver will scan both sides, but it automatically crops out chunks of some pages apparently at random, so you have to correct the scanning area for each page - and it won't let you control the scanner parameters like you should be able to. The WIA driver won't do both sides at all, and has odd defaults on top of that.
So if you are scanning front sides only with Acrobat, you can make this scanner work from Acrobat, but otherwise, you are in for a hassle. Maybe there is some other driver that would work, but I haven't been able to find it yet.
wonderful addition to my office March 2, 2006

I haven't had any of the problems the other reviewer mentioned. The document feeder has not jammed on me yet and is incredibly quick compared to my old machine. Once you customize the settings, it's one touch operation.
 ADF failure January 13, 2007

It's true that machines of the same model can perform differently, but I'm with the "thumbs-down" group. I bought this to PDF my paper files and found in the first 30 minutes that the document feeder was nearly 100% consistent in its inability to throughput multiple pages. It either jammed or fired through pages without scanning virtually every time. That's with the included software and, as above, Adobe Acrobat 7.0. I returned it.
