Double sided scanning

[Imac484]

Does the HP Officejet 5740 have the option or ability to do double-sided scanning without having to manually re-order the scanned documents after they are scanned?

Hi @Imac484,

Welcome to HP Support Community.  

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

The HP OfficeJet 5740 does not have an automatic document feeder (ADF) that supports double-sided scanning in a single pass. This means that if you want to scan double-sided documents, you will need to manually flip and re-feed the pages to scan the other side. Unfortunately, this model does not have the capability to automatically scan both sides of a document without user intervention.

For automatic double-sided scanning without manual reordering, you would typically need a scanner with a duplexing automatic document feeder (DADF) feature. If double-sided scanning is a crucial requirement for your workflow, you may want to consider other HP OfficeJet models or other brands that offer this feature. Always check the specifications or contact the manufacturer directly to confirm the features of a specific printer or scanner model.

"Thank you for your feedback. If I manually flip and re-feed the pages to scan the other side, will I need to manually reorder the documents on my computer? Or is there an automatic way to re-order them correctly?"

I have reviewed the manual, but I couldn't find any information regarding the automatic arrangement of a double-sided scan in the correct order. Can you please let me know if there is any software or application that can help me with this task? Alternatively, do I need to manually drag each document into the correct order?.
