AIO printer scanner w/ duplex scan via sane drivers (lemmy.world)

I have been using an old HP AIO for years. Two things have really been bothering me lately.

  • I'm tired on having to install, uninstall, reinstall the hplip drivers. Sometimes if I unplug the cable and plug it back in the same port it requires a reinstall to work again. Other times I have no idea why.
  • Sometimes scanning works, but it's only single sided. I have piles of paper to scan and I'm tired of flipping the paper and reordering the digital pages.

So, anyone have a MFP/AIO that works with default Linux drivers and has supported duplex scanning? I want specific models, not just brand names.

My parents use a brother AIO with Ubuntu, but it doesn't have a doc feeder so I can't speak to that. Zero complaints otherwise. Some more advanced mfps will allow you to scan to a shared folder as well.
