Basic Operation

IMPORTANTIMPORTANT

If the document guides are too loose or too tight, this may result in misfeeds or paper jams.

• While scanning documents, do not add or remove documents.

• When scanning is complete, remove the document from the document

return tray to avoid paper jams.

• Do not scan the same document more than 30 times. When a document

is scanned repeatedly, the paper can become wrinkled, earmarked, or torn, which may result in paper jams.

Load Paper

Before loading paper, check the paper is the right type. If you load inappropriate paper repeatedly, this may cause paper jams.

Paper such as Legal, Letter, Statement, Executive, and envelopes can be used. For details about the available paper or precautions, see [Basic Operation]  [Loading paper] in the e-Manual.

until the edge of the paper stack meets the back of the paper cassette.

Make sure that the paper stack does not exceed the load limit guides (A).

•

Adjust the paper guides tightly to the width and length of the paper.

IMPORTANTIMPORTANT
