Have you tried using VueScan without Twain Sane? VueScan handles multipage scanning and includes drivers for a great many scanners.
VueScan does very clear scans but it doesn't handle orientation and its OCR is less than perfect. This is why I scan using VueScan and Have Readiris do the OCR. The result is excellent in both English and French, and that's without cutting up the books I scan. I just open them out flat and scan two pages at once. My scanner doesn't have an automatic feed, so I scan chapter by chapter, just to give myself a break. I have VueScan set to launch Readiris, and once Readiris is ready, I press Command-R and it performs the OCR and opens the resulting document in TextEdit.
