Hi,
Fortunately my scanner has never had this problem. To prevent pages being
stuck, try fanning the pages out a bit on the ADF tray before scanning. This
will loosen up any perferated attachments remaining. I use the Epson
GT-15000 scanner to scan my books. This scanner has the ability to tell you
how many pages it scanned in one batch, and it is quite worthwhile, although
time consuming, to count each page as you stack it on the ADF and prepare it
for scanning. This way, if what the computer tells you is different from
what you counted, either you counted incorrectly -- which happens quite
often, even with people who have been scanning for quite a while (we're
humans,) or indeed some pages were scanned simultaneously.
Sincerely,
Munawar A. Bijani

Yep Cindy. Sanning gets to be kind of like rowing, flip, scan, flip, scan,
flip scan, you get a rhythm going and all else kinda fades into the
background until...holy hobgoblins, the book's been scanned! Then comes the
fun part of proofing your own work, which of course, any veteran scanner can
ttell you is often tedious work. We often see what we know should be there
in our own works, so it usually takes somebody else who hasn't been slaving
over the scanner for 3 or 4 hours to spot the errors. Like missing pages.
Lol.
