Frage an meine lieben Bürokratie-Freunde: Könnt ihr mir einen #Scanner mit Einzug empfehlen?

Ich habe vor, meinen Dokumentenordner endlich Mal zu digitalisieren, und das alte Flachbett was ich habe macht mich fertig. Ich will was effizienteres, aber kenne mich da gar nicht aus. Sind moderne Scanner genauso grauenhaft, wie die Drucker? Hat da jemand vielleicht viel Erfahrung mit gemacht?

Gerne boosten!

I have a very nice HP Color LaserJet MFP M283fdw. It has a scanner with an automatic document feeder.

On the Linux side, I usually use `xsane` to scan. This works when I put a document on the document glass. But it doesn't work with the ADF. When I tell xsane to use the ADF, the scanner sucks the documents through the ADF as it should, but then xsane pops up an error dialog that says "failed to start scanner : document feeder out of documents" and doesn't seem to have any scans.

I *did* get it to work with the `scanadf` command, so there's nothing really wrong, just some software confusion.

I have two questions:
* Is there something I can do with `xsane` to make it handle the ADF correctly?
* Is there an alternative to `xsane` that might work instead?

I need to scan a couple of thousand family photographs. The 11-year-old Scan Snap 1300i that I have isn't up to the job, quality wise. I'd rather stay away from a flatbed. Does anyone have one they'd like to recommend? I don't need pro features. I do need a good Mac driver. #Scanner

Like seriously, I'm not a prophet, but a #Linux #Sysadmin but when I tell people "#Inkjet #printers are a scam!" it's fucking grounded in reality.

  • The only reason I still have a shitty #Deskjet6122 is because that fucker refuses to die!...

Same goes for a shitty #OfficeJet #MFP who's sole purpose is to to be a #Scanner...

So yeah, espechally for #Printing, just get yourself a #refurbished #Xerox #WorkCentre or something cuz #Toner can't dry out and it'll be cheaper no matter if you print one page per year or 1.000 in a single day!

Here are the results of scanning my painting with different apps. The two proprietary ones scan well (after epsonscan was made to work at all, that is), but XSane is applying extra contrast that makes it lose dynamic range. Even changing brightness/contrast in its settings doesn't give you back the DR, which means that this filter is applied before the user filters are. I'd have to move to Epson's Scan app now on Debian (app doesn't work on Mint).
