Before scanning, make sure that the document is not curled or
creased, and that it is placed in the feed tray correctly. Scanning an
improperly placed, curled, or creased document may damage the
document or cause a paper jam.
When placing documents into the feed tray, take care not to cut
your hands on the edges of the paper.
Before you place a document, check to make sure it does not
contain paper clips, staples, or other small metal objects. These
items may cause a fire or electrical shock, damage the docu-
ment, or cause a paper jam or scanner malfunction.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that may get caught in the
scanner while you are using it. This may result in personal
injury. Be extra careful of neckties and long hair. If anything gets
caught in the scanner, immediately turn the power OFF, and dis-
connect the power cord from the power outlet to stop scanning.
Always smooth out any folds or curls in your documents before
placing them into the feeder. If the leading edge of a document
is curled, it may cause a paper jam.
If feeding stops due to a system error or paper jam while the
scanner is scanning, resolve the problem, make sure that the
scanned image of the last page that was successfully fed has
been stored, and then resume scanning the remaining docu-
ment pages.
After you finish scanning, close the document feed tray and the
document eject tray to prevent damage to the scanner while it is
not being used.
Documents That Contain Differently-Sized Pages
Place the document so that each page is centered between the
document guides.
