Bug Description
Binary package hint: simple-scan
If I press Scan in simple-scan, then scan multiple pages on my scanner (in this case, a Lexmark X543dn), then only the first page appears in simple-scan. I can of course press Scan again to scan the next page, but with a network scanner this is tedious, as I have to enter a code on the scanner for every page, rather than just telling it to scan another page, or feeding a multi-page document into it.
See bug 815856 for scanning with "All pages from feeder."

Hi there,
thank you for filing this bug and showing your interest in Simple Scan!
This seems to be a Hardware Issue, i.e. Simple Scan does not support your scanner perfectly -- or possibly not at all.
Unfortunately such problems happen more often then they should, and while it might indeed be a problem with Simple Scan, in our experience, most of the time it is not.
This is why we prepared a check-list at [1] that will let you find out whether or not it really is a problem with Simple Scan and what your options are in either case.
Please read that list and tell us how you decided to proceed. I will set this bug to "Incomplete", so a friendly robot will expire this bug in 60 days if you do not respond. However, we would really prefer to hear back from you!
Best Regards
Michael
