HPLIP supports both ADF and flatbed scan for Officejet 8600. If you want to scan from ADF, then run xsane and select the source as ADF and then scan. If you want to scan more number of pages automatically from ADF, then there is an option in Xsane UI.

For ADF scanning, you can also run in commandline 'hp-scan --adf'.

Hope this would resolve your query.

Thanks Sarbeswar, I had not noticed that option in xsane before. This is the first time I have added a printer using HPLIP that the ADF option was not automatically used.

I would now consider this incident closed.
