1 To prevent double feeding, separate any documents which have been stapled together or stacked, as in a file, before setting in the scanner.
①Fan the stack of documents to separate all of the edges. ②Hold both ends of the document and bend them as shown to the right. ③To separate the document apart, grasp them firmly and pull them so that the center part waves as shown to the right.
Repeat the steps above as necessary.

2 Carefully align the top left ends of the documents.

3 Adjust the document guide slightly larger than the actual size of the document.

4 Place the documents on the hopper with the side to be scanned facing up. Then push them in the direction of the arrow until they stop.
- Place the documents on the hopper by matching them with the left side of the hopper as shown in the diagrams at the right. The amount of documents should not exceed the limit mark on the document guide. This may cause a paper jam or skew.
- For different sized documents, place them with the top left ends facing the left side of the hopper.


5 Adjust the document guide to the size of the document to be scanned. Adjust the exit document stopper to the size of the document to be output.

6 When using long paper, pull out the hopper extension tray from the hopper and the exit document stopper from the document cover. Then adjust the exit document stopper above the document cover a little longer than the actual length of the document by pressing down the exit document stopper slightly. (See fig. 1.)
- When scanning narrow documents as shown below, pull up the exit substopper. (See fig. 2.)
After using the exit substopper, push it down.



Cautions:
- When scanning very fragile documents, scan with the flatbed side. (See page 28.)
- For thin, thick or important paper, scan the document with the flatbed side or using single sheet (manual feed) mode (see page 31). Also, remove the document from the document cover after it is scanned by the ADF.
- The scanner will accept 50 to 127 g/m² (13 to 34 lbs.) paper for continuous scanning and 40 to 127 g/m² (10.6 to 34 lbs.) paper for single scanning.
- When scanning a thin, folded, creased or curled document by the ADF, after straightening the document, set the feed speed to "Slow".
- When scanning thick documents [64 g/m² (17 lbs.) or more], be sure to use less than 200 sheets.
- When scanning copying paper such as carbon or carbonless paper, use the flatbed.
- When setting the document, be sure that it does not exceed the fill indicator (limit mark).
- Be sure to remove the document from the document cover after it is scanned.
- When the scanner does not detect a document set in the hopper which has a black or dark area on the opposite side, add a white sheet of paper under the document.
- When scanning the different sized documents, exited document may go into the stack of documents on the exit part and may get out of order.
Types of documents to avoid for the ADF :
● OHP sheets, other plastic film, cloth, or metallic sheets ● Paper with irregularities such as tabs, staples, paste, etc. - Documents with wet ink ● Thick or irregular documents such as envelopes, paste, etc. - Copying paper such as carbons or carbonless paper (Chemically treated carbonless forms) Note: Scanning chemically treated paper will result in premature wear of the paper feed roller.
● Damaged or wrinkled documents
● Unusually shaped documents
- Tracing paper
One sheet or a book document can be scanned on the document glass. Scanning documents in this way is known as "scanning with the flatbed".
■ When scanning with the flatbed one time
1 Open the document cover.

2 Place the scanning side of the document face down on top of the document glass.
- If the document is bent or folded, straighten it.
3 Match the shorter side of the document with the left edge of the document glass.
4 Match the longer side of the document with the standard mark.
- If the document is slanted, it will not be scanned properly.

5 Close the document cover gently.
- If the document cover is slammed, the document will move and may not be scanned properly.
- Do not open or press down on the document cover during scanning.
- Do not look directly at the light. (You may damage your eyes.)
- Be sure to close the document cover before use. ● After scanning, open the document cover and remove the document.

■ When scanning with the flatbed repeatedly
The ADF is heavy so when scanning with the flatbed repeatedly, separate the ADF and document cover.
1 Pull the exit document stopper towards you, pull the front door release under the hopper, separate the ADF and document cover, and lift up the ADF to open.

2 Perform operation steps 1 through 5 for scanning with the flatbed one time. (See pages 28 and 29.)
3 After scanning, close the document cover gently.

Close the ADF gently.
- Push down on both sides of the ADF gently until it clicks into place.
- Do not close the ADF holding the hopper extension tray.

■ Scanning thick documents
When scanning thick documents such as a book, please note the following items:
- The operation methods when scanning thick documents, such as a book, with the flatbed one time and repeatedly are the same.
- Do not close the document cover forcibly. You may scan with the document cover open. In this case, do not look directly at the light.
- Please note that areas of the document which are not touching the document glass will not be scanned properly.
- If the document moves during scanning, please note that it will not be scanned properly.
When scanning a document with multiple pages with the ADF, set the manual feed selector to "MANUAL" and the pages can be scanned one page at a time.
1 Set the manual feed selector to "MANUAL".
● The hopper will then be raised to the proper level for manual feeding.

2 Match the document guide with the size of the document.

3 Insert the document into the paper slot one page at a time.

Cautions:
- Please remove any staples from the document before use with this scanner. ● Glued or curled documents may cause a paper jam or damage the unit, so please scan using the flatbed.
Torn documents, thin documents or documents that are creased on the top edge may cause paper jams. If a paper jam occurs ("U xx JAM" will be displayed on the LCD), remove the jammed sheet according to the following procedure.
■ Removing paper jams from the feed part
Using your fingers, hold down the ADF door release. Open the ADF door and pull the jammed document towards the feed part, and then close the ADF door.
- Push both sides of the ADF door down gently until it clicks into place.
- Since the rollers are located on the left side of the ADF door, there is more weight on the left side.
Therefore, it is important to note that the door needs to have tension evenly divided to close it properly.

■ Removing paper jams from the exit part
If a jammed document appears at the exit part, pull the exit document stopper towards you, open the front door and pull the document forward, then close the front door.
- Push both sides of the front door down gently until it clicks into place.
- Do not close the front door holding the hopper extension tray.
