RE: Re: HP scanjet 5550c

Thanks for the reply. I went with an HP LaserJet 1300 for printing, but I'm
still looking for a decent ADF (sheetfed) scanning solution (>10 ppm
scanning speed). Are there any AiO products that you (or anyone else here)
would recommend for ADF scanning with good speed and reliability?
Considering the high prices of standalone ADF scanners, I'd consider buying
an inkjet AiO for the ADF scanning alone.
