Description Marcello Massaro 2022-05-15 14:15:39 UTC 
"""Some""" (Brother MFC-L2710DN) multi-function printers have a document feeder without duplex function (I guess so you are pushed to spend 200€ more for that and FTP functionality?). It would be **great** if Skanpage would be able to automatically re-shuffle pages appropriately, after the user scans first all odd and then all even pages (by simply flipping upside-down the stack of pages).

For a bit more clarity:
1. Place stack of documents.
2. Click scan -> Skanpage scans all documents in feeder. Without duplex, this means it will only scan odd pages, first to last.
3. Place stack of document upside-down.
4. Click scan -> Skanpage scans all documents in feeder. Without duplex, this means it will only scan even pages, last to first.
5. Click on <button-to-be-added> that takes page number N and puts it at position 2, N -> 4, and so on N/2 times.

The button could be disabled (or hidden) if Skanpage detects an ADF with duplex functionality, so that the user does not get confused about what this button would do in their case, since with a duplex scanner it would be useless.

I hope I was clear enough. :D
