PRECAUTIONS
1
Make sure that your documents are within the acceptable scanning sizes.
Length: 2.8 – 17 inches (70 – 432 mm)
Documents up to 39.4 inches (1000 mm) can be scanned in the extra long mode.
Thickness: 0.06 – 0.15 mm (auto feed), 0.05 – 0.3 mm (manual feed)
Weight: 16 – 32 lb. bond (60 – 120 g/m2)
If there is any wet ink or paste on the document, wait until the ink or paste has thoroughly
dried before scanning the document.
Always clean the scanning rollers after scanning a document that has pencil writing on it.
Scanning a double-sided document printed on thin paper may result in an image in which
elements from the opposite page show through. To avoid this, adjust brightness in the
application software.
If you scan documents with a rough surface, friction between the documents may cause a
feeding error. If this happens, select manual feeding and scan the documents one by one.
When you scan a batch of NCR documents, make sure they are not stuck together.
Refer to Chapter 4.1 of the DR-6080/9080C Instructions manual for further details on acceptable document types and how to place documents on the scanner.
DOCUMENT TYPES TO AVOID
The Canon DR-6080 and DR-9080C are compact desktop document scanners that offer rapid scanning, a large document feeding capacity, and reliable paper feeding. To ensure optimum performance with either unit, please follow the recommendations below.
To avoid paper jams, damage to documents, and scanner malfunction, do not feed the following types of documents. Instead, make a copy of the document and scan the copy.
Wrinkled or creased paper
Curled paper
Torn paper
Paper with clips or staples
Carbon-backed paper
Coated paper or fax recording paper
Onion skin or other thin paper
Paper with binding holes
SCANNING BASICS
GETTING STARTED
This section explains the basic steps involved in scanning a document. It assumes that the batch to be scanned contains papers all of the same size and thickness. When using either the DR-6080 or the DR-9080C, you should always make sure that the scanner has been turned ON before turning on the computer connected to it.
STEP
1
To prepare the DR-6080/9080C for document scanning, first pull out the document tray extension from the scanner’s lower section (the document tray). If the document extends beyond the edge of the document tray, then also open the extension wire.
2
The purpose of this Quick Reference is to provide a concise overview of the DR-6080/9080C. It is designed to supplement—not replace—the Instructions manual included with the scanner. Please review the DR­6080/9080C Instructions manual for key information on safety precautions, installation procedures, and maintenance guidelines.

Long Documents
If the document you are scanning is long, open the document eject tray extension. Next, lift up the stopper and adjust its position to match
the length of the document.
Short Documents
If the document you are scanning is short, use the stopper without opening the document eject tray extension. Lift up the stopper and adjust its position to match the length of the document.
If the document being ejected drifts to the left or right, then adjust the position of the document eject guides. These are located on either side of the scanner’s upper tray (the document eject tray).

Standard:
Select this mode when you wish to use your application software to start or stop scanning.
Panel:
Select this mode when you need to continuously scan multiple batches of documents, and the batches differ from one another in the size of the documents they contain. Scanning starts by pressing the scanner’s built-in Start key.
Automatic:
Select this mode to continuously scan multiple batches of documents that are all the same size. The scanner will detect documents placed on its Document Tray and begin scanning automatically.
Manual (Bypass Mode):
This mode is intended for documents which cannot be smoothly fed into the scanner. In this mode, documents are fed into the scanner one page at a time. Wait until step 5 to select this mode. (See p.7)
