Activating the continuous operation test
Open the ADF and close it again. If no document is loaded on the ADF within five seconds after closing the ADF, the image scanner runs in flatbed mode. If documents are loaded on the ADF within five seconds after closing the ADF, the image scanner continuously feeds the document from ADF. Once the image scanner starts reading documents in flatbed mode, it does not feed documents from ADF even if documents are loaded on the ADF.
Ending the test in flatbed mode
To stop the carrier movement in flatbed mode, open the ADF. If the ADF is opened, the POWER lamp starts blinking immediately after the carrier returns to the home position.
Ending the test in ADF mode
If the ADF hopper is empty, feeding documents from the ADF ends. To restart feeding, open the ADF and close it again. Then load documents on the ADF paper chute within five seconds after closing the ADF.
