Unacceptable Documents 2

The following types of documents may not be scanned successfully:
Documents with a carbon sheet attached
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
Photographs (photographic paper)
Documents printed on perforated paper
Documents printed on unusually-shaped paper (not square or rectangular)
Documents with photos, notes, or stickers affixed to them
Documents that use carbonless paper
Documents that use loose-leaf paper or any paper with holes in it
Documents with paper clips or staples
Documents with wet ink
Fabrics, metallic sheets, or overhead projector sheets
Glossy or mirrored media
Documents that exceed recommended thicknesses
2
• Carbonless papers contain chemical substances that may damage the rollers (for example, the pick-up roller). If paper jams occur frequently, clean the reverse roller and pick-up roller. (See Clean the Scanner and Rollers on page 205.) The life of the reverse roller and pick-up roller may be reduced compared to scanning wood-containing paper.
• When scanning wood-containing papers, the life of the reverse roller and pick-up roller may be reduced compared to scanning wood-free paper.
• The reverse roller 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.
• The damage caused by using any unacceptable documents with your Brother machine may not be covered under warranty.

NOTE

Conditions for Multifeed Detection 2

Multifeed is an error where two or more sheets are fed through the ADF at once. It is also called a multifeed when a different document length is detected.
Multifeed detection is performed by either checking the overlapping of documents, length of the documents, or the combination of both. The following conditions are required for an accurate detection.
Detection by overlapping
• Load documents of the same paper weight in the Paper Guides.
• Suitable paper weight: between 27 g/m
• Do not punch holes within 40 mm over the centre of the document.
• Do not attach other documents within 40 mm over the centre of the document.
• The condition applies when the document is set in the centre of the pick-up roller.
• When you use detection by overlapping, scanning thick documents, such as plastic cards, will be incorrectly detected as a multifeed.
To scan these documents successfully, disable the multifeed detection function.
2
and 413 g/m2.
2

Scanning a Mixed Batch 2

The following conditions apply when scanning a mixed batch of documents with different paper weights, friction coefficients or sizes.
Make sure to test a few sheets first to check if the documents can be scanned.
Paper direction
Align the direction of the paper fibre with the feed direction.
Paper weight
Only paper weights between 40 g/m
Friction coefficient
We recommend using the same type of paper from the same manufacturer.
When papers of different manufacturers/brands are mixed, it affects the feeding performance as the difference in the friction coefficient increases.
We recommend using friction coefficients between 0.35 and 0.60 (reference value for paper friction coefficient).
Document position
Use paper sizes that fit the 39 mm width of the pick-up roller in the centre.
2
and 413 g/m2 can be used.

Page 71
Document Specifications
IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT
Paper size
When you scan a mixed batch with different sizes, not feeding the documents straight may cause problems, such as paper jams or part of the image to appear missing.
We recommend checking the documents thoroughly before scanning and also checking the image if the document was skewed.
When scanning a mixed batch with different sizes, documents are more likely to skew because the paper guides do not contact every sheet.
Documents that cannot be scanned in a mixed batch
The following types of documents cannot be mixed in the same batch:
• Carbonless paper
• Bond paper
• Perforated documents
• Thermal paper
• Carbon-backed paper
• OHP film
• Tracing paper
• Synthetic paper
2
The following types of documents may not be scanned successfully:
• Bent or damaged documents
• Thin paper (less than 40 g/m

Carrier Sheet Recommendations 2

Documents of uneven thickness, such as envelopes
Documents with large wrinkles or curls
Bent or damaged documents
Documents that use tracing paper

Documents printed on perforated paper
Documents printed on unusually-shaped paper (not square or rectangular)
Documents with photos, notes, or stickers attached to them
Documents that use carbonless paper
Documents that use loose-leaf paper or any paper with holes in it
To avoid cutting yourself, do not slide or scrape your hand or fingers along the edge of the Carrier Sheet.
2
• To avoid warping the Carrier Sheet, do not place the Carrier Sheet in direct sunlight or in an area subject to high temperatures and high humidity.
• To avoid damaging the Carrier Sheet, do not bend or pull it. Do not use a damaged Carrier Sheet as it may produce incorrect scan results.
• To avoid document jams, do not load the Carrier Sheet upside down. For more information, refer to the instructions printed on the Carrier Sheet itself or see Load Documents on page 59.
• To avoid document jams, do not put several small documents into the Carrier Sheet at the same time. Insert only one document into the Carrier Sheet at a time.
• Do not write on the Carrier Sheet as the writing may be seen in scanned documents. If the Carrier Sheet becomes dirty, wipe it with a dry cloth.
• Do not leave documents in the Carrier Sheet for extended periods of time, as the printing on the documents may bleed through onto the Carrier Sheet.
The damage caused by using any unacceptable document with your Brother machine may not be covered under warranty.
