Troubleshooting

Problem solving

Occasionally you may encounter a situation with your scanner where it 
may not function properly. Use the chart below as a guide to check 
possible solutions to help you resolve the situation before calling 
Technical Support.

Problem

Possible Solution

A document is 
jammed in the 
scanner

• Open the scanner cover.
• Remove any jammed document(s) from inside 

the scanner.

• Close the scanner cover and resume scanning.

Distorted images

The feeder holds up to 20 documents in the input 
tray. While scanning is taking place, you cannot 
add documents to the feeder. If you do add 
documents, your images may be distorted.

Image has 
clipped corners

If your images have clipped corners, the skew 
angle was too large for the scanner to handle. Be 
sure documents are placed in the input tray with 
the edges aligned and the side guides positioned 
correctly to accommodate the size documents you 
are feeding to avoid large skew angles.
