Automatic Photo feeder I bought the Epson 2480 scanner in a limted ewdition with an Automatic Photo feeder several years ago--the feeder is worn out...Can I place this ADF in its place?

Yes, I'm pretty sure you can. You could contact Epson's techical support to be sure.

I scan wireless with it and find it fast enough especially when creating pdf with 200 to 300 dpi (good results), and with the ADF it can manage double sided too. Yuo have to start the epson scanner software on the computer first, then operate from the computer, setting pdf or image format, resolution etc, document name and where to save.

K Jansen is correct - the duplex scan process works through the automatic document feeder (ADF). Lots of action!

I don't have this printer yet but I've been researching and talked to the Epson rep at Fry's. I can answer your last two questions: Yes, you need an additional part (available for ~25 bucks) for duplex printing. However, there is no duplex auto doc feeder, making automated dual sided copies impossible. BTW the duplex Auto Document Feeder (ADF) scanning is what is holding me back on this purchase. My current HP 7780 has a duplex ADF and the Canon MX7600 have it.

The only issue I've had with the ADF is if I try to do duplex scanning with wrinkled paper, but that's not a printer defect :)That said, I don't usually scan large documents so I may simply have not hit this issue.

The auto feed on the top only works for the scanner and copier. Envelopes and non standard paper have to go in the paper feeder. Hopefully that helps.

I have not tried to do this, but I suspect that a) the photos may stick together and not feed well, especially if they are glossy, and b) the scan path is not very friendly to paper as heavy as photo stock.I would check HP's scanner specs to see what they say about maximum paper weight.But my best guess is no.

Yes, the ADF is just that - auto document feeder - it feeds them through pretty quickly - way faster than one page at a time on the flatbed.

No. The only paper feeds are from the paper tray (underneath) and the rear feeder. Both must be blank paper. Automatic Document Feeders, which is what you are looking for, are considerably more expensive.

Well, it is a bit time consuming. You will use your micro SD card to import the image onto your computer. You can then view or print the image. However, if you want to manipulate the image you will have to transfer it/save it into a word document or other format. The image quality is excellent, and the auto feeder - if you go that route - is well worth the money. It will just take you a few steps to control or manipulate the image on your computer.Hope this helps.

Mary F. Brim, I put all photo papers in the back paper feeding slot, and then slide the two holders together until they touch the sides of the paper. I put the taller dimension up, as in portrait mode. Then with the software PREFERENCES, I select either PORTRAIT or LANDSCAPE. If your photo paper is thick and heavy, or smaller, that holder/feeder does not require the heavy stock to bend as it encounters the printer heads. So I use that for all my photo printing chores. And envelopes as well.

I just bought an MX860 and noticed that, while it can copy and scan 2-sided from the ADF, it cannot *fax* from 2-sided paper. If your originals are 2-sided, you'd have to first copy them 2-sided --> 1-sided, then fax the 1-sided originals.On another discussion thread, someone said they fixed that in the mX870. So now you can fax 2-sided originals from the MX870 ADF.

It SUCKS as a CIS system. Dont bother. Look on some forums and find a better sublimation one. I bought this one for my Epson and it totally sucked, and I got NO SUPPORT!!!

That model is terrible. Send it to recycler, then purchase an Epson Workforce WF-2530 !! A great printer!

Only the Epson company can answer a question like that. I would suggest calling the maker first. If you know what I think about the product, it was wonderful. I have had two now. Just wore one out after many years. I much prefer a flat bed scanner.

Of course it depends on how much use your printer/scanner/whatever is getting, but in my experience it's like putting a brand new roller in. I have printers than have gone for several years without issues.
