My recommendation: use a proper multi-function copier
(the big copiers)
that can also scan to network. I currently use our big Konica-Minolta
I've got a Lexmark X646E full duplex printing/scanner. I'm still learning
how to use it at its max, but I believe I'll scan TONS of documents I have
stored home as soon as I learn how to PROPERLY do that.
Interesting machine. Very cheap, but with a very fast ADF duplex scanner. I
just need to learn all the adjusts and fix the ADF rollers.

I
can
do the entire document into CCITT 4 in one operation.
For scanning software, I highly recommend VueScan:
https://www.hamrick.com/
There are Linux, Windows and Mac versions, and it supports thousands scanner models, including some very old ones.
VueScan can also do CCITT
G4
compression, and directly create PDF files. If
you but the pro version,
updates are free. I've been using it for years.
My recommendation: use a proper multi-function copier (the big copiers)
that can also scan to network. I currently use our big Konica-Minolta
bizhub 754. Although it'a b/w copier, it can also scan in color. This
machine scans a two-sided page without flipping the paper, resolution
600dpi, color/bw, and I scan to TIFF multipage images (sometimes I use
JPEG for color pages). No problems scanning a batch of A3 schematics ;-)
Then I use tumble (either directly on the generated .tif or after
tiffsplit and rearranging pages) and ocrmypdf to produce the PDF file.
I guess my setup is much faster than Al's ;-)))
