of your document and then pressing the Scan button, your
multi-page scan from the flatbed can be completed. This
feature is particularly useful when you need to scan inside pages
of a book.

Make sure that the upper left corner of your document is
near the home position as marked by arrow.

paper on the source. However, if there is paper on both
the auto document feeder and the flatbed, the scanner will
set auto document feeder to be the scan source.

perform “automatic crop” and “deskew” for the scanned
image. However, the “Multi-feed Detection” and “Duplex”
functions will be disabled.
