BTW, I’ve had my Brother laser MFP for 11 years and still on the original toner.

    Did the same thing for mine. I’ve got one with ADF scanning, but it’s only one-sided. So I simply wrote some script on my scan server that merges the current scan with the last scan if they have the same amount of pages and now I can easily scan stacks of paper with both sides. After that it goes through some compression and off to my NAS. Ah, love my pipeline, so glad how simple the printer’s Linux drivers made it.

      That’s awesome! I’d love to expand mine to do more like that, but the model I have doesn’t have the ADF so it’s kind of pointless.
