Chapter 3 Basic Operation
• To avoid paper jams, damage to documents, and a scanner
malfunction, do not feed the following types of paper. For
such documents, scan one page at a time from the flatbed
(platen glass).
Hint
• Note that mixing documents of different thicknesses and sizes
may cause a malfunction during feeding.
• Documents containing text or pictures within 0.2" (5 mm) of its
edges or documents with a color background may cause
erroneous skew detection or automatic size detection.
Feeder Capacity
Note the following rules when loading a document into the
feeder.
• Make sure the top of the document stack is not higher than
the load limitation mark. Overloading the feeder can cause
jamming.
• The feeder is designed to hold approximately 100 sheets of
standard copy paper (20 lb bond or 80 g/m

).
