3.3 Before Scanning or Copying a Document by Automatic
Document Feeder
This section explains the operation required before scanning and reading a
document by automatic document feeder.
If you operate the equipment by a method other than described in this
section, a paper jam or reading error may occur.
3.3.1 Confirming Document Condition
This section explains documents that can be read by automatic document
feeding and those that are difficult to read.
Readable documents
Readable documents are listed below.
Paper type - High-quality paper
- PPC paper (paper specified by Xerox Corporation)
Ream weight 45 to 90 kg/ream (52.3 to 104.7 g/m2)
Size A4, A5, B5, letter size, legal size, and name card size (A8)
M3092DC Image Scanner Operation Guide 3-5

3.3.2 Setting Documents
This section explains how to set documents.
Loosening documents
Before setting documents, sufficiently loosen them by the following
procedure:
• Remove a 4 mm thick section of pages, hold the ends of the
documents with both hands, and bend the documents.
• Hold the documents strongly with both hands so that both ends of the
documents are slanted, and then unbend the documents so that they
are inflated.
• Repeat the operations described above two or three times.
• Turn the document by 90
o
and similarly loosen it.
u Key point
The thickness of the documents to be set shall be 4 mm or less.
Failure to do so could result in the paper jam or the reading defect.
Leveling both ends and setting the documents
Level both ends of the documents so that they can be read correctly.
M3092DC Image Scanner Operation Guide 3-7
u Key point
Set the documents as follows:
For single-side reading: Place the reading side facing the document
support surface.
For double-sided reading: Place the surface (first page) facing the
document support surface.

3.4 Scanning Documents
This section explains how to scan documents.
1) Make sure that the powers of the personal computer and the scanner
are ON.
2) Check the document condition.
For details, see Section 3.3.1, "Confirming Document Condition."
3) Before setting documents, sufficiently loosen them.
For details, see Section 3.3.2, "Setting Documents."
4) Set the documents on the document support.
− Estimate the number of pages to be set based on the following
standard:
The document thickness must be 4 mm or less (50 sheets by
55 kg/ream (64 g/cm2) paper) for A4 or legal size or smaller.
− Level the end of documents to be set.
For details, see Section 3.3.2, "Setting Documents."
− Set the documents as follows.
◊ For single-side reading: Place the reading side facing down
(document support surface).
◊ For double-sided reading: Place the surface (first page)
facing down (document support surface).
− Insert the documents in the automatic document feeder until they
softly touch the back of the automatic document feeder.
Excessively strong insertion results in feeding multiple pages
simultaneously. Also, make sure that the ends of the pages are not
folded down.
