.B OfficeJet ADF issues
The OfficeJet R and G series are capable of scanning 8.5"x14" documents
in the ADF using a two-pass scanning method, but this is not currently
supported in the backend. The OfficeJet 1175 and R series refuse to
unload an ADF-loaded document after scanning, and instead display a
message on the front panel prompting the user to remove the document
from the glass and press a button to continue; the OfficeJet G series
doesn't have this problem, however. The OfficeJet G, K, and V series
automatically unload an ADF-loaded document when the scan channel is closed,
particularly after an idle timeout when connected to an HP JetDirect.
.TP
.B OfficeJet K series and V series
The K and V series feature a "scrollfed" scanner, where the paper is fed
across a stationary scanhead, as opposed to flatbed, where the scanhead
moves across the page. A consequence of this difference is that the
document length is not known in advance; the scan stops when the end
of the document is reached. To perform a scan, you must first click
on "Change document", and then start your preview or regular scan.
If necessary, click on "Cancel" when the scan stops. If there are more
documents to scan, click on "Change document" again to advance to the
next page and repeat the procedure; otherwise, click on "Unload" to
completely unload the page. An alternative for non-preview scans is
to set the page length (option "br-y") to slightly less than the known
page length, for example, 10.5 inches for an 8.5"x11" page. This will
eliminate the need to cancel the scan, but you still need to click on
"Change document" before each scan and "Unload" after the last page.
Note that due to the use of the "Change document" and "Unload" options,
you will probably not be able to use the command-line "scanimage" program
with the K or V series, not even the "-T" or "--test" parameters.

HP OfficeJet Linux driver, available from http://hpoj.sourceforge.net.

Support for the LaserJet 3100 and 3150 is NOT planned, because programming
information for these models is not available. However, if you have a
LaserJet 3150 connected to a JetDirect 70X/170X/300X/500X with firmware
x.08.xx or later, you can scan using the JetDirect's embedded web server.
