❏ Coated paper
Important:
c
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
