I am not using this printer but try to check for right arrow(ins) option which will take multiple scans into a pdf.

You have an option to create a multipage (PDF) file or single images. Please select appropriate option.

Hi

Click right mouse on the scanner icon and then change the file setting of your scanned file. Change it to pdf file not jpeg to scan in multiple pages. Another is by changing pdf to jpeg using the printer itself. Use the LCD screen menu to navigate.

Another way if you can install ADOBE ACROBAT READER PRO SOFTWARE, you can scan with multiple pages. Regads

yes if you use a pdf editor or office suite.

I have a different all-in-one but the tool used for scanning may be similar. When installing the printer, the MF Toolbox utility was also installed. If I want to scan multiple pages into a single document, I have three options for "Save as type". One is "PDF", another is "PDF (Multiple pages)" the third is "PDF (Add page)". I use the second option for multiple pages. Once the first page is done, a dialog box will appear and prompt me to insert the next page in the scanner and continue.

See if the tools installed with your printer have something similar.

Scanning a multi-page document as a .pdf file reverts the settings for rotation, selected area, etc. to default for any pages after the first page. This applies to Mac OSX 10.3, 10.4, & 10.5. A simple, but tedious work-around is to scan each page as a separate file and easily recombine them using OSX Preview. Just open the first page, view the Sidebar, and drag-drop the additional page files into the sidebar. Save and it's all one multi-page .pdf.

Try OCR Terminal,which is an online OCR service that converts scanned images into searchable text. Register an account and you can convert 20 pages for free every month.
Have a try and hope it helps.

Tip 1: Update to the latest drivers This is the most important tip. Download the latest driver for your scanner from the manufacturer website..
Tip 2: Reset your scanner If your scanner used to work in PDF Studio but stopped working: Turn off your scanner ...
Tip 3: Make sure scanner works in other applications
Tip 4: Try another scanner driver

Use the PDF function of the CanoScan Toolbox. On the options screen for a pdf, click the drop down box next to “Save as Type:”. Select “PDF (Multiple Pages)”. This option causes CanoScan to stop after each page is scanned and ask if there is a next page or if you are finished.

You have to scan with Adobe Reader in order to scan and save a pdf
