7. Notes on Handling Documents
There are a number of points to note when handling documents.
• Adjust the Document Guide Plates to the width of the document.
The document may be fed in askew if incorrectly adjusted.
• Remove any paper clips or staples from the documents.
• When the document is glued or tape flags are attached, place the document on the glass. Do not load the
document in the document feeder. Glue or tape flags may cause misfeed or affect scanning Image
Quality when it remains on the scanning area.
• Ensure that any correction fluid or ink has completely dried before inserting the document.
• If the Document Feed Cover is opened while using the Automatic Document Feeder to transmit or copy,
the scanning operation will be suspended.
• Do not open the Document Feed Cover while scanning or copying.
• Ensure that no documents are left on the Book Scanner.
Documents must be removed, otherwise the scanner may not operate correctly.
• Ensure that any correction fluid or ink has completely dried before placing the document.
• When scanning a thick document, do not attempt to force the document cover closed. Excessive force
may cause damage.
• Ensure that no documents are left in the Automatic Document Feeder. If any documents are left in the
feeder, they must be removed.
• The size of a document may not be detected in the case of the types of document listed below. In this
case, select the size before use. For transmission, “Selecting the Area of the Document to be Scanned
and Transmitted”

p. 3-16. For copying, “Selecting the Copy Paper Size”

p. 2-5.
- Dark documents.
- Transparencies, such as OHP Paper and tracing paper.
- Unusually shaped or long documents.
- Documents with raised (embossed) characters.
- Unusually shaped documents (those other than rectangular).
- Documents smaller than Letter
(8-1/2"
×
11") or Letter (11"
×
8-1/2").
- Documents bigger than Ledger (11"
×
17").
• When used with the Document Cover open.
• If the document paper is thin, marks on the Document Cover may be scanned. In this case, place a blank
sheet that is the same size as the document paper on top of the document.
• If the document is not a regular size (such as letter or legal), the copier selects the nearest regular size as
the document size.
• When placing a document on the glass, open the document cover to an angle of at least 15º to ensure the
document size is correctly detected. Failure to open the document cover by at least 15º may result in the
document size not being detected correctly.
• Do not place anything heavier than 6.6lbs. on the glass surface.
• Do not press the document down too hard when placing a book or similar document on the glass, as this
may damage the equipment.
• A very bright light is emitted while scanning. Do not look directly at the glass surface while scanning.
