Precautions for Originals
Acceptable originals
When the ADF (RADF or DSDF) is used, 2-sided originals can be automatically scanned one sheet after another. When
the original glass is used, originals such as OHP films, tracing paper, booklet or 3-dimensional objects, that cannot be
placed on the ADF can be scanned, as well as plain paper.
*
For the originals whose paper weight is more than 157 g/m
2
(41.8 lb.), enough image quality may not be able to be obtained.
Automatic size detection does not work properly when A/B format originals are used in equipment for North
America. It does not work properly when LT format originals are used in equipment other than that for North
America.
Do not place any heavy objects (4 kg (9 lb.) or over) on the original glass and do not press on it with force.
Be sure to place ST-size or A5-size originals in a landscape direction when using the ADF.
A maximum of 1000 sheets can be scanned per 1 copy job or up until the embedded memory becomes full.
There are precautions in addition to the ones above regarding originals to be faxed. For details, refer to the
