Does it name the files itself based upon the information it is reading, or does it require the user to name each file as it is scanned.

It will make up a name, but not from information it is reading. I typically name my files while pages are being scanned.

I scan just about everything, including receipts, but I am not sure what you mean by 'record' receipts. If you mean to categorize them when scanned, you can do that by the file you save a receipt(s) in. I must say this is the best scanner I have ever had used.

Yes if you have all of the documents on-hand, simply scan all of them and then assign a name. If you scan several documents into, for example a PDF, and than want to add more - I'm fairly sure the scanning software does NOT have any provision for editing a previous documents. If you had a full copy of Adobe PDF (not just the reader) then you could scan the second group of documents as a second PDF and then use Adobe PDF to merge the two PDFs into one.

The scanner has no memory. It just scans the data into a file on your computer. So, capacity is dependent only on how much disk space you have available on your computer. If you meant, how many pages will the scanner process at one time, I'd say about 30 pages will fit in the input tray.

Yes, but it is a two-pass process. You feed the automatic document feeder the documents to scan then you have to flip them to scan the other side. The software automatically adjusts appropriately to have the opposite sides correspond in page number order to the first side scanned (if side 1 of the first sheet --the first image scanned-- is the first page and side two of the first sheet is the second page the end result is their images will appear in that page-order even though side 2 of the first sheet is the last image scanned).

It scans documents, so yes, it will store them as well. You can tell the software what folder to scan to, whether it's pdf, image scans or other scan types. You can then edit your scan from that folder, and move it to where you want it be stored.

The default seems to be to scan multiple pages as one document but you can change that in the advanced settings. So the answer is that you can scan either way.

It scans to a file which is saved on a memory card. They are just standard jpg files.

Yes. I scan multi page documents and when finished the computer screen prompts you with, "Finished Scanning?"You then choose location to save file, name the document, and it saves it as a PDF file.

No. Each scans as a separate pdf file with a different file name. You would have to create a file and copy the 5 pages into the file.

It scans documents into PDF files. You can organize the documents into file folders. Very easy to do.

No, a file for each one and eventually the scan & copy function won't work at all. I have two of these things and the only thing that works is the printer. Do not buy this printer! As a matter of fact, stay away from HP altogether. They all break eventually and getting assistance from a human is virtually impossible. Don't believe me, try before you buy!

The Brother ADS 2000 does the same thing. Surprisingly, it really does not take that long to rename docs. If you also have Acrobat installed on your computer, and then install the Nuance software that comes with the scanner, you will then a preview pane that pops up and allows you to see the first page of each doc from the list. If you have more questions, feel free to submit. In a month and 1/2, I have scanned over 900 docs with a total page count of almost 34,000.

no it will not send scanned pages to different folders. It puts your scanned pages into a folder you specify and it becomes a searchable pdf. I personally scan everything into one folder and if you ever need to retrieve something you type in (Alliant Energy) and it brings up every document that has those words on them

I've never tried to name a document before scanning. When the image transfers to my hard drive they are named "img001.pdf" or similar. I always rename and refile, as appropriate.

From the software you load on PC you can name documents. It is a very good scanner so far for us.

Using their software you first scan the item or items you desire. It places them in its own temp folder. Then it shows a list of tiles to choose from. Select scan to folder. it then places the date and time of the scan (where you can let it that way or I usually backspace to the beginning and name my file with a space after it). Mid way down the page it lets you scan to its folder or lets you change the setting to the folder you want (such as your Document folder or a folder you created). when you select save it will save the scan to the folder of your choice.
