Placing Standard Size Originals
1. Open the input tray and extend the input tray extension. Slide out the output tray, extend the output tray
extension, and then raise the stopper.
Note:
❏ For A4 size or larger originals, make sure you pull out and extend the input tray extension.
❏ Make sure you pull out and extend the output tray extensions so that they are a little bit longer than the length of the
original, and raise the stopper so that the ejected originals can be stacked comfortably on the output tray.
❏e stopper can move forward and backward on the output tray extension so that you can easily adjust the stopper
position to the best position for the originals being scanned.
❏ If thick originals bump into the output tray and fall from it, store the output tray and do not use it to stack the
ejected originals.
❏ If scanned images are still aected by ejected originals hitting the surface below the scanner, we recommend placing
the scanner on the edge of a table where the ejected originals can drop freely and you can catch them.
2. Slide the edge guides on the input tray all the way out.
