• Documents written in pencil
• Documents of uneven thickness, such as envelopes
• Documents with large wrinkles or curls
• Documents that use tracing paper
• Documents that use coated paper

IMPORTANT
• Carbonless papers contain chemical substances that may damage the rollers (for example, the Pick Up Roller). If paper jams occur frequently, clean the Separation Pad and Pick Up Roller. The life of the Separation Pad and Pick Up Roller may be reduced compared to scanning paper with high wood content.
• When scanning paper with high wood content, the life of the Separation Pad and Pick Up Roller may be reduced compared to scanning wood-free paper.
• The Separation Pad and Pick Up Roller may become damaged when a photo or sticky note on the document touches these parts during scanning.
• The surface of the document may be damaged when scanning glossy papers such as photographs.
