Important:
Carbonless paper contains chemical substances that may damage the rollers inside the scanner. Check the following
points when scanning originals of carbonless paper.
❏
Clean the Pickup Roller and the Separation Roller regularly.
❏
Scanning carbonless paper may reduce the service life of the rollers compared with scanning plain paper.
Note:
❏
Wrinkled originals may be scanned better if you slow down the feeding speed during scanning or smooth out the wrinkles
before loading.
❏
To scan originals that are easily damaged or wrinkled, use the Carrier Sheet (sold separately).
❏
To scan originals that are incorrectly detected as double feeds, set the
DFDS Function
to
On
on the control panel before
you resume scanning, or select
Off
in
Detect Double Feed
on the
Main Settings
tab in the Epson Scan 2 window. See
Document Capture Pro help on how to specify the settings of Epson Scan 2 from Document Capture Pro.
❏
Labels or stickers must be firmly stuck to the originals with no glue protruding.
❏
Try to flatten the curled originals before scanning.
