Feeder (DADF-P2)
You should use the feeder when you want to copy several originals at the same time. Place the
originals into the feeder and press
(Start). The machine automatically feeds the originals to
the platen glass and scans them. Two-sided originals can also be automatically turned over and
scanned as two-sided documents.
You can place the following originals into the feeder:
Weight:
- 52 g/m
2
to 105 g/m
2
Size:
- A3, A4, A4R, A5, A5R.
Tray capacity:
- A4, A4R, A5, A5R: 50 sheets (80 g/m
2
)
- A3: 25 sheets (80 g/m
2
)
IMPORTANT
•
Thin originals may become creased, if used in a high-temperature or high-humidity environment.
•
Do not place the following types of originals into the feeder:
- Originals with tears or large binding holes
- Severely curled originals or originals with sharp folds
- Clipped or stapled originals
- Carbon-backed paper or other originals which may not feed smoothly
- Transparencies and other highly transparent originals
•
If the same original is fed through the feeder repeatedly, the original may fold or become creased, and
make feeding impossible. Limit repeated feeding to a maximum of 30 times (this number varies,
depending on the type and quality of the original).
•
If the feeder rollers are dirty from scanning an original written with pencil, clean the feeder. (See
“Manual Feeder Cleaning,” on p. 7-37.)
•
Always smooth out any folds in your originals before placing them into the feeder.
•
Set the originals one by one if they are very thin (37 g/m 2 to 52 g/m 2 ) or very thick (105 g/m 2 to
128 g/m
2
).
