afaik you just listed features that the printer I mentioned (or if I am wrong, other similar printers) supports
it's my bad for not mentioning all possible workflows, I was just a bit lazy and thinking of my personal documents only, which do not work well with further smart automation, because my batches are highly irregular. So the more manual approach is the best for me currently. Maybe possible with some future AI integration.
Most of those features are implemented in the scan software on the PC, not on the scanner itself. Although there is a tendency to integrate more and more features in the firmware, which is not always a good idea. Also, if you're scanning low volumes, I'd say doing the separation before the scan is generally more efficient. At least that's how I do it. But that's just me, of course. I wasn't in any way trying to criticize your approach. If it works for you, it's great.
