Loading Originals

Follow the instructions here to load your originals into the scanner.

Note: The illustrations show the DS-575W II, but the steps are the same for the DS-530 II and DS-770 II.

Loading Originals in the Input Tray Loading Plastic and Laminated Cards in the Input Tray Loading Special Originals

Loading Originals in the Input Tray

You can load originals that meet the document specifications in the input tray.

Caution: Do not load photos, valuable original documents or artwork, directly into the input tray. This may wrinkle or damage the original. Load these originals using an optional carrier sheet.

Note: Photos scanned using a document scanner may not have the same color depth as the original. Use a flatbed photo scanner with the optional flatbed scanner dock (DS-530 II/DS-770 II) to achieve the best color reproduction of photos.

The steps below describe loading originals of the same size. To load originals of multiple sizes at once, see the link at the end of these steps.

1. Open the input tray and pull up its extension.

2. Pull out the output tray and its extension, and open the stopper.

Note: If you are loading an original that is 15.5 inches (393.8 mm) or longer, do not pull out the input or output tray extensions and do not open the stopper.

3. Slide the input tray edge guides all the way out.

4. If you are loading a multi-page original, fan your stack of originals.

Note: If you are loading an original that is 15.5 inches (393.8 mm) or longer, load only one sheet at a time.

5. Stack the originals with the printed side facing down and slide the stack so the leading edge is at an angle as shown.

6. Load standard originals into the input tray printed side down and top edge first, and guide them in until they meet resistance.

• If you are loading paper business cards, load up to 15 (DS-530 II/DS-575W II) or 30 (DS-770 II)

cards printed side down and long edge first into the input tray horizontally, and slide them in until they meet resistance.

• If you are loading hole-punched originals, load them with the holes facing down or to the side as

shown. The holes must be within 1.2 inches (30 mm) of the edge of the originals.

7. Slide the edge guides against the edges of the original.

Note: If you are scanning originals that are 15.5 inches (393.8 mm) or longer, support the original as

it enters into and ejects from the scanner as shown.

8. If necessary during scanning, adjust the position of the stopper on the output tray extension to fit the ejected originals.

Note: If thicker paper does not eject properly or falls from the output tray, push in the output tray and allow the originals to eject freely onto the surface below the scanner. If the scanned images are affected by the originals ejecting below the scanner, try placing the scanner on the edge of a table where the ejected originals can drop freely.

9. If scanning thin or wrinkled paper causes paper jams, press the slow mode button once before scanning to slow down the feeding speed; press it again to return to normal speed.

If a paper feed error is detected, the Paper Protection feature stops the scanning process automatically to reduce damage to the original. To change the Paper Protection detection level, open the Epson Scan 2 Utility, click on the Scanner Setting tab, and select the desired level from the Paper Protection dropdown list.

Note: The Paper Protection feature does not prevent all documents from being damaged. Paper feed errors may not be detected depending on the paper feeding conditions.

Loading Multiple Sizes of Originals in the Input Tray

You can load originals of different sizes, paper types, and thicknesses at one time in the input tray. Just make sure they meet the original document specifications.

Caution: Do not load photos, or valuable original documents or artwork, directly into the input tray. This

may wrinkle or damage the original. Load these originals using an optional carrier sheet.

1. Open the input tray and pull up its extension.

2. Pull out the output tray and its extension, and open the stopper.

Note: If you are loading originals that are 15.5 inches (393.8 mm) or longer, do not pull out the input or output tray extensions and do not open the stopper.

3. Slide the input tray edge guides all the way out.

4. Load the originals in the input tray in descending order of paper size with the widest at the back and the narrowest at the front. Slide them in until they meet resistance. Make sure the printed sides are facedown and the top edges are slightly angled in the input tray.

5. Slide the edge guides against the edges of the widest original.

6. If necessary during scanning, adjust the position of the stopper on the output tray extension to fit the ejected originals.

If scanning thin or wrinkled paper causes paper jams, press the slow mode button once before scanning to slow down the feeding speed; press it again to return to normal speed.

To help deter unauthorized access to your product over a network, you should protect your network environment using appropriate security measures.

Security measures such as these can help deter threats such as loss of user data, use of telephone and fax lines, and other intrusions:

• Enable security on your wireless LAN

Enable the appropriate security on the wireless LAN you plan to use with your product. Network security such as a network password can deter interception of traffic over the wireless LAN. Your router may already have a default password enabled by your Internet service provider (ISP). See your ISP and router documentation for instructions on how to change the default password and better secure your network.

• Connect your product only to a network protected by a firewall

Connecting your product directly to the Internet may leave it vulnerable to security threats. Instead, connect it to a router or other network connection protected by a firewall. Your router may already have a firewall set up by your Internet service provider; check with your ISP for confirmation. For best results, set up and use a private IP address for your network connection.

• Change the default administrator password on your product

If your product has an option to set an administrator password, change the default administrator password to deter access by unauthorized users to personal data stored on your product, such as IDs, passwords, and contact lists.

You can enable a direct Wi-Fi connection to allow direct communication between your scanner and computer or other devices without a wireless router or access point.

Note: If you are connecting a wireless device to the scanner using a direct Wi-Fi (AP mode) connection, the scanner is connected to the same Wi-Fi network (SSID) as the wireless device. When you turn off the scanner, the wireless device is automatically connected to other Wi-Fi networks, so you must reconnect to the scanner in AP mode from the wireless device when you turn the scanner back on. To avoid reconnecting every time you turn the scanner off and back on, connect the scanner to an access point instead.

Scan Resolution Guidelines

The resolution setting in your scanning software, measured in dpi (dots per inch), controls the amount of detail captured in your scans. Increasing the resolution raises the amount of detail captured but comes with the following disadvantages:

• Larger file sizes

• It takes longer to scan your originals, send/receive your scans by email or fax, and to print your scans

• The image may become too large to fit on your display or print on paper

• The maximum length you can scan is reduced

If you plan to enlarge a scanned image so you can print it at a larger size, you may need to increase the resolution from the default resolution set by the software. Follow these guidelines to determine the resolution setting you need:

• You will scan the image at its original size but enlarge it later in an image-editing program.

Increase the resolution setting in your scanning software. Increase the resolution by the same amount you will increase the image size to retain a high image quality. For example, if the resolution is 300 dpi (dots per inch) and you will double the image size later, change the resolution setting to 600 dpi.

• You will scan the image at 100% or smaller size.

Select the resolution setting based on how you will use the scanned image:

• Email/view on a computer screen/post on the web: 96 to 200 dpi

• Print/fax/convert to editable text (OCR)/create searchable PDF: 200 to 300 dpi

• You will scan a long original.

Scan paper up to 240 inches (6096 mm) in length with a maximum resolution of 300 dpi or less.
