Conditions for Mixed Batch Scanning
The following conditions apply when scanning a mixed batch
of documents with different paper sizes. Make sure to test a
few sheets first to check if the documents can be scanned.
For details about scanning, refer to
Paper direction
Align the direction of the paper fiber with the feed direction.
Document position
Make sure that all documents are placed over the entire width (approx.
40-mm wide) of the pick roller when loading documents.
Paper size
When you scan a mixed batch of documents with different sizes, feeding
the documents at a wrong angle may cause paper jams or part of the
image to appear missing.
It is recommended to check the documents thoroughly before scanning
and also check the image if the document was skewed.
Documents that cannot be scanned in a mixed batch
The following types of documents cannot be mixed in the same batch:
Bond paper
Tracing paper
ATTENTION
You cannot scan a mixed batch of documents with different paper
weights/friction coefficients.
40mm
ATTENTION
When scanning a batch of documents with different sizes, documents
are more likely to get skewed because the side guides do not fit every
sheet properly.
