Purchased it on the basis that it appeared to be a network scanner - that is, a scanner with adequate built in functionality to perform scans save as pdf or image files and send them to a file server or an email client...

Unfortunately not - it is dependent on a PC driving the scanner so, at its price, it is woefully inadequate.

It does an adequate job of scanning - as long as you have a decently powerful PC driving it

If I had a dollar for every time this thing gave me a scan of the platen cover instead of the document in the feeder, it would have paid for itself by now. And it's not a cheap unit.

Trying to get it to scan what you want in the way you want it is an amazing time sink. Forget just feeding a stack of documents. You have to scan it page by page. But not from the scanner. You have to tell it to scan from your PC, and walk back to the scanner to change each page, one by one.

I don't know why I don't take this thing out back and smash it. It would cost me less to buy a proper scanner than I lose in productivity trying to make this thing do its job.

My company purchased this for a satellite office. The installation software is bugged to all hell. Had to install each application manually through command line (HP's recommended steps). I've never seen or used such a poorly designed and documented device. For the same amount of money you could get a used Xerox machine that does everything and more and will meet and exceed your needs. This scanner is barely a simple scanner with a network port.

If you must get this, be warned that you can only use this device on the same subnet as your users (to wit, are limited to 20). There is no way around this and HP has confirmed it.
