Theoretically yes. But I have still to solve ADF problem for the 7400
series. But older ADF units and the professional ones e.g. from the
Avision 8000 series just work fine. So if you have luck the ADF will
simply work when you plugged it into your scanner.

If the ADF hangs during feeding the first page, use usbsnoop during
ADF scanning under Windows to log the data traffic and send the output
to me. I hope to have some free time this summer to continue to solve
the last HP problems with the backend.
