Unable scan without duplex on HP Scanjet 5590

Post by rpellegrini »

Hello, I have read a post here with a similar problem, but they were using TSScan and were referred to those developers and I could not find a resolution.

We are using an HP Scanjet 5590 scanner with an ADF and with Duplex capabilities. When I run Vintasoft's Advanced Demo against it, the scanner scans both sides of the page regardless of the use duplex checkbox.

Start with one page in ADF
"Use Duplex" not Checked
Scan
Acquire Image(s)
Images counter = 2

What can I do to make duplex stop working?

Hello,

What driver do you use? TWAIN or WIA?

Also please see which values are supported by Duplex capability. You can get this information in our TWAIN Advanced Demo - run the demo, select the device and press the "Get Source info" button.

Best regards, Alexander

Hello,

TWAIN driver of scanner supports two pass duplex, duplex can be enabled/disabled.

TWAIN driver has bug or limitation if you cannot disable th duplex, please try to find new driver.

Best regards, Alexander

Thank you for your reply. It caused me to look more closely at HP's site regarding alternative drivers where I found this statement:

"The 5590 supports duplex (double-sided) ADF scanning, but does not have a duplex switch. Simplex/duplex is selected using a popup window. The popup window is English-only."

Hello,

You are using simplified "All-in-One" TWAIN driver for all HP scanners - it's the main problem. Use "native" TWAIN driver for your scanner and you will be able to use all features of the scanner.
