Preparing the Document
Follow these simple guidelines to check your document before you set
the document on the fax for copying.
❏
For best results, load only documents of recommended standard size
and weight. Refer to Appendix B. (

B-1)
❏
The document guides on the document feeder tray can be adjusted
to the width of non-standard size paper. For best results, however, all
sheets in the stack should be of the same width.
❏
Although the document guides on the document feeder tray indicate
11
×
17 in. size and such a document can be set on the document
feeder tray, the effective scanning width is up to B4 size (10 in.).
❏
To avoid document jams, never feed thick documents or documents
backed with carbon paper.
❏
To avoid document jams and possible damage to the fax, avoid
wrinkled or creased paper, carbon paper, curled paper, coated paper,
and onion skin or other very thin paper.
❏
The fax does not scan completely to the edges of the paper and
anything beyond this recommended margin will not be scanned for
copying. See Appendix B and check your document. (

❏
To avoid paper jams or damaging the fax, inspect the document
carefully and make sure it is free of pins, staples, paper clips, and
other metal fasteners.
❏
Make sure all the documents are dry. They should not have wet ink,
glue, or paste on their surfaces.
❏
Before you feed a stack of documents into the fax, make sure all the
pages are the same size and thickness. Do not attempt to feed
documents of mixed sizes and thickness in the same stack.
