Documents

This scanner is able to scan documents ranging in size from business cards
and checks up to B4 size documents. The scannable size range is:

Width: 2.2" to 10.1" (55 mm - 257 mm)

2.8" to 10.1" (70 mm - 257 mm)
Length: 2.8" to 14.3" (70 mm - 364 mm)
Thickness: 0.0024" to 0.059" (0.06 mm - 0.15 mm) with automatic feeding

0.0019" to 0.0079" (0.05 mm - 0.2 mm) with manual feeding
Weight: 14 to 32 lb bond (52 g/m2 - 128 g/m2) with automatic feeding

11 to 40 lb bond (42 g/m2 - 157 g/m2) with manual feeding

There are certain criteria that a document must meet in order to be scannable.
Familiarize yourself with the following points:

● When scanning a multi-page document, pages must be grouped together so
that they have the same size, thickness and weight. Scanning different
types of paper at one time can cause the scanner to jam.

● Scanning documents before the ink is dry can cause problems with the
scanner. Always make sure that the ink on a document is dry before
scanning it.

● Scanning documents that are written in pencil or similar material can make
the rollers dirty, which can then transfer the dirt to subsequent documents.
Always clean the rollers after scanning a document written in pencil.

● When scanning a double-sided document that is printed on thin paper, the
image on the opposite side of each page may show through. Adjust the
scanning intensity in the application software before scanning the
document.

● Scanning the following types of documents can cause a paper jam or
malfunction. To scan such a document, make a photocopy of the document
and then scan the photocopy.

the scanner is scanning, resolve the problem, make sure that the scanned
image of the last page that was fed has been stored, and then resume the
scanning operation.

● Note that documents that are printed on thin paper may fall out of the
document eject tray.

7.

If the scanner is not going to be used again soon after the document has been
scanned, protect the scanner from damage by removing the document eject
guide (if it is attached to the document eject tray) and then close the paper
feed tray and the document eject tray extension.

Note

When operating this scanner, avoid wearing loose-fitting clothing, dangling
jewelry, or other material that could get pulled into the scanner. Injury could
result. Be especially careful if you are wearing a necktie or have long hair. In
the event that some article or clothing does get caught in the scanner, turn the

Action Use a recommended USB 2.0 interface board. (See “USB 2.0

Interface Board” on p.18)

Cause The USB hub is not on.

Action Turn the USB hub on.

Troubleshooting 59

✘ Images Are Not Scanned

Check the following if the scanner does not scan an image even though the
scanning operation is being performed:

● Is the scanner correctly connected to the PC?

● Has the scanner driver been installed?

● Has the application software been installed correctly? Has the application

software been set up correctly?

● Is there a problem in the PC system?

Notice

If the scanner does not respond at all due to a system error, turn the
scanner off, wait at least 10 seconds, and then turn the scanner back on
again.
When you resume scanning, make sure that the last document was scanned
correctly.

✘ Documents Do Not Feed Properly

The following are possible causes of a document failing to feed properly.
Check each possible cause.

Cause Attempting to scan a document of a size, thickness or

weight that the scanner cannot scan.

Action Check the size, thickness and weight of the document. For

precautions concerning documents, refer to “Documents” on
page 37.

Cause The rollers inside the scanner are dirty or worn.

Action Clean the rollers as described on page 55. If the rollers are worn,

contact your service representative and request to have the rollers
replaced.

For details on how to clear jammed paper, see “Clearing a Paper Jam” on
page 51.

60 Troubleshooting

✘ Resulting Scanned Images Are Not Correct

If the resulting scanned images are not crisp, if there are lines or spots on the
images, or if there is some other problem with scanned images, likely causes
are listed below. Check each item and take the appropriate action.

Cause The scanning glass or the rollers inside the scanner are dirty.

Action Clean the scanning glass and rollers as described on page 55.

Cause The application software is not set up properly for

scanning.

Action Check the scanning-related settings, such as brightness in the

application software.

For example, if the document cannot be scanned at all, it is
possible that the brightness setting is too high. If the resulting
scanned images are too dark, it is possible that the brightness
setting is too low.

Cause The scanner driver or application software is not running

normally.

Action If the software is set properly for scanning and normal scanning

is still not possible, it is possible that the scanner driver or the
application software is not running normally. Reinstall the
scanning driver or the application software. For details on how to
install the scanner driver, See “Installing the ISIS/TWAIN
Driver” on p.26. For details on how to install the application
software, refer to the application software instruction manual.

Cause Attempting to use a function of the DR-3080CII that is not

supported by the application software.

Action Some application software may not support certain functions,

such as automatically detecting the paper size or changing the
scanning mode/resolution through the scan panel. Using such
application software for scanning may yield abnormal scanning
results. Try scanning without using functions such as automatic
paper size detection or margins settings.

If scanned images are still not satisfactory even after checking the items
above, calibrate the scanner. (See p. 62)

Troubleshooting 61

CAUTION
Always clean the scanning glass before calibrating the scanner
(see "Cleaning the Scanning Glass and Rollers" on p.55).
Attempting to calibrate the scanner while the scanning glass is
dirty may result in vertical lines appearing on scanned images.
Note that calibrating the scanner will permanently delete any
existing calibration configuration.

Locate the adjustment sheet (shading paper) that accompanies the scanner.
Load it into the scanner with the arrow pointing in the direction illustrated.

Adjustment sheet

After loading the adjustment sheet, click the [Start] button in Windows, select
[Programs] - [Canon DR-3080CII] then click [DR-3080CII Shading Tool].

The [Scanner Adjustment] dialog box is displayed. Follow the instructions on
the screen to calibrate the scanner.
