Precautions
Take note of the following:
Up to three Carrier Sheets can be loaded at once.
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.
Do not write on, color, stain, or cut the end with a black and white
pattern on the Carrier Sheet. Otherwise, the Carrier Sheet may not be
recognized correctly.
Do not place the Carrier Sheet upside down. Otherwise, a paper jam
may occur and damage the Carrier Sheet and the document inside.
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.
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.
Do not fold or pull the Carrier Sheet.
Do not use a damaged Carrier Sheet because it may damage or
cause the scanner to malfunction.
To avoid deformation, keep the Carrier Sheet on a flat surface without
any weight on it.
Be careful not to cut your finger on the edge of the Carrier Sheet.
If paper jams occur frequently, feed about 50 sheets of PPC paper
(recycled paper) before scanning with the Carrier Sheet.
The PPC paper can either be blank or printed.
Paper jams may occur when you place several small documents
(such as photos or postcards) in the Carrier Sheet for scanning. It is
recommended that you place only one document at a time in the
Carrier Sheet.
