Originals with crinkles or fold lines

Perforated originals
Original with labels or stickers
Carbon-less paper
Curled originals
Coated paper
Important:
c
Carbon-less paper contains chemical substances that may harm the rollers. If you scan carbon-less paper, clean the pickup roller and the separation roller regularly. Also, scanning carbon-less paper may shorten the life cycle of the rollers faster than scanning plain paper.
Note:
Crinkled originals may scan better if you slow down the feeding speed during scanning or smooth out the crinkles before
loading.
To scan delicate originals or originals that are easily crinkled, 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. When you are using Document Capture Pro, you can open the window by pressing the Detailed Settings button on the Scan Settings screen.

Placing Standard Size Originals
1. 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 aected 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.

3. Fan the originals.
Hold both ends of the originals and fan them a few times.
4. Align the edges of the originals with the printed side facing down and slide the leading edge into a wedge shape.
5. Load the originals into the input tray facing down with the top edge facing into the ADF.
Slide the originals into the ADF until they meet resistance.

6. Slide the edge guides to t the edge of the originals making sure there are no gaps between the originals and the edge guides. Otherwise, the originals may be fed skewed.
Note:
When scanning originals with punch holes such as loose leaf paper, load the originals with the holes facing to the side
or facing down. ere must not be any holes within a 30 mm (1.2 inches) strip at the center of the originals. However, there can be holes within 30 mm (1.2 inches) from the leading edge of the originals. Make sure that the edges of the punch holes do not have burrs or curls.
When scanning thin paper with crinkles that are causing paper jams or double feeds, you may be able to improve the
situation by enabling Slow. To do this, select Settings > Scanner Settings > Slow on the control panel and set it to On to slow down the feeding speed.
