❏ Originals with an uneven surface such as letter head paper.

❏ Perforated originals

❏ Original with labels or stickers (including a glued small piece of paper)

❏ Carbonless paper

❏ Curled originals

❏ Coated paper

Page 31

Specications and Capacity for Originals

Important:

Types of Originals that Must Not be Scanned

Carbonless paper contains chemical substances that may damage the rollers inside the scanner. Check the following points when scanning originals of carbonless paper.

❏ Clean the Pickup Roller and the Separation Roller regularly.

❏ Scanning carbonless paper may reduce the service life of the rollers compared with scanning plain paper.

Note:

❏ Wrinkled originals may be scanned better if you slow down the feeding speed during scanning or smooth out the wrinkles

before loading.

❏ To scan originals that are easily damaged or wrinkled, use the Carrier Sheet (sold separately).

❏ To scan originals that are incorrectly detected as double feeds, set the DFDS Function to On on the control panel before

you resume scanning, or select O in Detect Double Feed on the Main Settings tab in the Epson Scan 2 window. See Document Capture Pro help on how to specify the settings of Epson Scan 2 from Document Capture Pro.

❏ Labels or stickers must be rmly stuck to the originals with no glue protruding.

❏ Try to atten the curled originals before scanning.

Types of Originals that Must Not be Scanned

is section lists the types of originals that must not be scanned

❏ Photos

❏ Bound originals* (thicker than 2 mm (0.08 in.) when closed)

❏ Non-paper original (such as clear les, fabric, and metal foil)

❏ Originals with staples or paper clips

❏ Originals with glue attached

❏ Ripped originals

❏ Heavily wrinkled or curled originals

❏ Originals such as OHP lm

❏ Originals with carbon paper on the back

❏ Originals with wet ink

❏ Originals with sticky notes attached

Note:

❏ *You can scan bound originals having a total thickness of 2 mm (0.08 in.) or less in A5 size (A4 in a two-page spread).

❏ Do not feed valuable photos, artwork, or important documents, which you do not want to damage or deface, into the

scanner directly. Misfeeding may wrinkle or damage the original. When scanning such originals, make sure to use the Carrier Sheet (sold separately).

❏ Ripped, wrinkled, or curled originals can also be scanned if you use the Carrier Sheet (sold separately).

Required Settings for Scanning

From the control panel on the scanner, any job for scan created in Document Capture Pro or Document Capture on the computer can be performed.

Job refers to a registration of a series of operations such as scan settings, save settings, and destination settings. Registering a series of operations as a job eliminates the need of setting such operations for each scan.

To perform a job from the control panel, the settings below are required.

❏ 1. Create a job in Document Capture Pro or Document Capture.

❏ 2. Register the created job to be performed from the control panel.
