Precautions
Take note of the following:
z
You cannot mix the Carrier Sheet and regular documents in the same
batch for scanning.
z
Up to three Carrier Sheets can be loaded at once.
z
Depending on the amount of memory used by running applications,
there may be insufficient memory to scan a double-page spread
document with the Carrier Sheet in high resolution. In that case,
specify a lower resolution and try scanning again.
z
Do not write on, color, stain, or cut the end with a black & white
pattern because the Carrier Sheet will not be recognized properly.
z
Do not place the Carrier Sheet upside down. Otherwise, a paper jam
may occur and damage the Carrier Sheet and the document inside.
z
Do not leave your document inside the Carrier Sheet for a long time.
Otherwise, the ink on the document may be transferred onto the
Carrier Sheet.
z
To avoid deformation, do not use or leave the Carrier Sheet in high
temperature places such as under direct sunlight or near a heating
apparatus for a long time.
z
Do not fold or pull the Carrier Sheet.
z
Do not use a damaged Carrier Sheet because it may damage or
cause the scanner to malfunction.
z
To avoid deformation, keep the Carrier Sheet on a flat surface without
any weight on it.
z
Be careful not to cut your finger on the edge of the Carrier Sheet.
z
If paper jams occur frequently, feed about 50 sheets of PPC paper
(recycled paper) before scanning with the Carrier Sheet.
The PPC paper (recycled paper) can either be blank or printed.
