Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his
own expense.

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limit for radio noise emissions
from digital apparatus set out in the Radio interference Regulations of the Canadian
Department of Communications.

ACHTUNG

Precautions

This section describes precautions when installing the scanner.

Do not install the scanner in the following places and environments.

• Place the scanner away from electrical noise sources, strong magnetic fields and air flow. If the scanner
is used near an air conditioner, copying machine, or TV set, the scanner may operate incorrectly.

• Keep the scanner out of the sun and away from heaters. These environments may shorten the scanner
life or cause hardware failures.

• Do not install the scanner in a place where vibrations may occur. This environment may cause hardware
failures or may cause the scanner to operate incorrectly.

• Do not install the scanner in a humid, dusty, or damp places. These environments may shorten the
scanner life or cause hardware failures. Do not place the scanner where liquid spills may occur.

Stellen Sie den Scanner sicher auf eine waagerechte, ebene Flache.
Bewegen Sie den Scanner nicht ohne Hilfe.

• Be aware of the static electricity. Be sure that the flooring and the desk are made of materials that do
not generate the static electricity.

Basic Operation of the Operator Panel

This section describes basic operation of the operator panel including how to enter the mode selec­tion mode in which you can use setup mode, browse mode, and test mode.

Displaying detailed information if an error occurred

If an error occurs, the CHECK LED blinks and the error message is displayed on the LCD. For
example, the LCD indicates as follows:

Hopper empty

Press

CANCEL

to clear the error (Temporaly errors will clear, equipment errors will not).

3-2

Lifting or lowering the hopper

When the scanner has no error (the CHECK LED does not light), pressing lifts the hopper
and pressing lowers the hopper.

CAUTION

During hopper height adjustment, do not touch the hopper table or do not put
anything on the hopper table to prevent your fingers from being caught. If
something is caught in the mechanism, the scanner may be damaged.

This function is valid when:
Ready is displayed.

In details:

• The DATA LED does not light (the scanner contains no data),

• The scanning operation is not in progress,

• The scanner is not in test mode (except the offline feed test), and

• The scanner is not in setup or browse mode.

The hopper stops at the pick position or at the 250-, 500-, or 1000-sheet position depending on the
hopper height adjustment in setup mode. At the pick position, the top paper of stack (the hopper
table when no paper is loaded on the hopper) is aligned to the pick roller. At the 250-sheet position,
for example, the hopper table can load about 250 sheets of paper.

Each time you press or , the hopper lifts or lowers by one position. Pressing when paper
is loaded, the hopper lifts up to the pick position.

3-3

Clearing a consumable life alarm

This scanner has the consumable counter to estimate consumable life of the scanner. When the
consumable counter reaches the prescribed value, the LCD indicates an alarm that the consum­able may be expired. For example, the following message appears:

Consumable life alarm
AAAAAAAA MMMM

In this case, press

CANCEL

. The LCD indicates the following message:

Reset Consumable Counter?
Yes:Enter No:Cancel

Yes (press
No (press

): The scanner resets the consumable counter to zero.

): The scanner does not reset the consumable counter. In this case, the

consumable life alarm recurs when the next sheet is fed.

Confirming the number of sheets processed by the scanner

The LCD indicates the numbers of sheets scanned during online or in test mode (offline feed test).
The LCD indicates the numbers as follows:

AAAAAAAA MMMM

Value Meaning Description

AAAAAAAA Abrasion counter Eight columns of numbers indicate the accumulative

number of sheets fed by this scanner.

MMMM Batch counter Four columns of numbers indicate the number of sheets fed

per hopper.

Using the function buttons (F1, F2, and F3)

This scanner has the three function buttons (

F1

,

F2

, and

) to save time when

F3

using a setup function which is likely to require tedious operation. Use these buttons as shortcut
keys when you frequently use certain setup functions for your jobs. See Chapter 6 for details.

You can use function buttons after allocating a setup function to it. This allocation can be done in
setup mode. After allocation, the allocated function can be easily accessed just by pressing the
function button. For allocatable setup functions, see Chapter 6.

The function buttons are available when:
Ready is displayed.

In details:

• The DATA LED does not light (the scanner contains no data),

• The scanning operation is not in progress,

• The scanner is not in test mode, and

• The scanner is not in setup or browse mode.
The function buttons are available even in the setup mode lock state (see Chapter 6).

Document Quality

This section describes paper types of documents and ream weights of paper available for the scan­ner, and precautions.

Paper types of documents

The recommended paper types of documents are as follows:

NOTE

Please use the specified paper. (In rare occasion, double feeding or document damage may occur.)

• Fine paper

• Plain paper

• OCR paper

When using any other paper types of documents, place a test batch of documents in to the ADF to
see if it successfully feeds the documents.

NOTE

Documents may be damaged when an error occurs.

Ream weight of paper

The ream weight of paper is as follows:

• 52 to 127 g/m2 (13.9 to 34 lb)

NOTE

4-2

lb indicates the pound weight of 500 sheets of 17 x 22 inch paper (3.76 g/m2).

Precautions

Be careful not to scan the following documents. Preliminary document feed testing may be necessary
to avoid the unexpected errors. If the document slips in ADF (JAM error) or double feed occurs
frequently, refer to “Improving Document Separation” in Reference Guide.

• Paper with clips or staples

• Paper with wet ink

• Paper of which thickness is not constantly equal. (like envelope)

• Paper with large rumples or curl. (See NOTE on the next page.)

• Paper with folds or tears

• Tracing paper

• Coating paper

• Carbon paper

• Carbonless paper

• Paper smaller than A7 size, or larger than A3 size

• Other than paper: clothes, metal foils, or OHP films

• Photographic paper

• Paper with notches on its side

• Other than rectangle paper

When scanning a translucent document, set the density to light mode.
To prevent roller smudging, avoid scanning a document filled out in pencil. Clean the roller as often as

possible when scanning many document. Once every 1000 sheets is recommended.
The chemical composition of some carbonless papers may react with the roller rubber and damage the

rubber. Check the carbonless papers before use.
When using carbonless paper, follow these conditions:

• Ream weight of the paper is 52 g/m2 (13.9 lb) or more.

• Hopper load is 500 sheets or fewer.

4-3

NOTE

• If carbonless papers are used, clean the roller twice as often as usual.

• Documents should be straightened to fit the condition below.

A drop-out color is a color visible by a human eye but not visible to the scanner.
To check the grounding color of document for a drop-out color, use the method and follow the

standards given below.

Print density measurement

The spectrum chart shown in Figure 4.4 is used to measure print density.
The measurement must be made in one of the following ways:

• A light source using fluorescent.

• Macbeth PCS meter PCM II is used, which requires a filter.

Consumable counter

This function displays or sets a value of the counter which informs the user of the life (replacement

this value according to types of paper you use. When using fine paper, the standard replacement
