Getting your documents ready to scan
• Standard paper size documents feed easily through the scanner.
When organizing documents for scanning, stack the documents so the
lead edges are aligned and centered in the input tray. This allows the
feeder to introduce documents into the scanner one at a time.
• Remove all staples and paper clips before scanning. Staples and
paper clips on documents may damage the scanner and documents.
• All inks and correction fluids on the paper must be dry before scanning
is started.
• Be sure the front side of the document is positioned against the input
tray and the top of the document is inserted into the input tray first.
• If you are scanning thick documents (i.e., card stock, etc.) using the
input tray, move the card feeder/thick document switch to the right
until it snaps into place. The switch should be pushed to the left when
scanning normal weight documents.
• If you are scanning credit cards, ID cards, thick cards, etc. place the
card(s) in the card feeder tray and move the card feeder/thick
document switch to the right until it snaps into place.
• When scanning business cards, the card feeder/thick document
switch should be pushed to the left.
