Scan multiple pages with WIA Automation

Question

I play with WIA Automation and I struggle to crawl more than a page at a time. Can someone give me some tips on how to achieve this? The following is an example of the code that I use to scan a document / image:

public static byte[] ScanImage(int colourType, string formatId, int dpi) { _dialog = new CommonDialogClass(); _scanner = _dialog.ShowSelectDevice(WIA.WiaDeviceType.ScannerDeviceType, false, false); foreach (Property item in _scanner.Items[1].Properties) { switch (item.PropertyID) { case 6146: //4 is Black-white,gray is 2, colour 1 SetProperty(item, colourType); break; case 6147: //dots per inch/horizontal SetProperty(item, dpi); break; case 6148: //dots per inch/vertical SetProperty(item, dpi); break; case 6149: //x point where to start scan SetProperty(item, 0); break; case 6150: //y-point where to start scan SetProperty(item, 0); break; case 6151: //horizontal extent SetProperty(item, (int)(8.5 * 100)); break; case 6152: //vertical extent SetProperty(item, 11 * 100); break; } } try { TempPath = System.IO.Path.GetTempPath() + "temp" + DateTime.Now.Ticks; ScannedImage = (ImageFile)_scanner.Items[1].Transfer(formatId); //System.IO.File.Delete(TempPath); ScannedImage.SaveFile(TempPath); //Convert image to binary Vector vector = ScannedImage.FileData; byte[] imgBin = (byte[])vector.get_BinaryData(); ScannedImageBinary = (byte[])vector.get_BinaryData(); //ImageFromFile = Image.FromFile(TempPath); } catch (Exception ex) { } return ScannedImageBinary; }

So it seems that you are saying C #.

See this answer: Using C # / WIA version 2.0 for Vista to scan

I wrote a small library to scan multiple documents on an ADF scanner:
