HP OfficeJet 4630 Double-Sided Scanning

[BobbyMW]

I remember  when I bought my printer years ago, it came with an original driver and software for Windows 8 that supported double-sided scanning. It then went through a series of updates but newer versions didn't continue having that feature any more.

I know that many people think that the printer physically flips the pages or scans both sides at the same time, but this model doesn't do that.

How the old software worked was that you'd place a stack of papers on the feeder & it would scan one side, (1,3,5,7) then you'd flip the stack & it would scan the other side (2,4,6,8). Then the app would automatically shuffle the scanned pages & put them in the right order, as simple as that.

I don't know why they removed this useful & necessary feature. I tried finding the outdated version, or the Windows original app, but it either doesn't work, or the feature doesn't exist.
