Documents for Scanning
Documents for Which the Carrier Sheet is Recommended for Scanning
It is recommended that you use the Carrier Sheet to scan the following documents.
z Documents written in pencil
Because there may be black traces left on the documents, it is recommended that you use the Carrier Sheet to scan such documents. Clean the rollers occasionally when you scan such documents directly without using a Carrier Sheet because dirt accumulating on the rollers may cause feeding errors. For details about how to clean the inside of the ScanSnap, refer to "Cleaning the Inside
of the ScanSnap" (page 436).
z Carbonless paper
Because carbonless paper may contain chemicals that can harm the ScanSnap internal rollers, it is recommended that you use the Carrier Sheet to scan such documents. Make sure to clean the rollers occasionally to maintain the scanner performance when scanning carbonless paper directly without using the Carrier Sheet. Depending on the type of carbonless paper, the life span of the scanner may be shortened compared to scanning standard office paper. For details about how to clean the inside of the ScanSnap, refer to "Cleaning the Inside
of the ScanSnap" (page 436).
z Scanning the following types of documents without using the Carrier Sheet can result in
documents being damaged or scanned incorrectly
- Documents smaller than 50.8 × 50.8 (mm) / 2 × 2 (in.) (width × length)
- Documents whose paper weight is less than 40 g/m² (10.7 lb)
- Documents of non-uniform thickness (e.g. envelopes and paper sheets with attached materials)
- Wrinkled or curled documents
- Folded or torn documents
- Tracing paper
- Coated paper
- Photographs (photographic paper)
- Perforated or punched documents
- Odd shaped documents (not square or rectangular)
- Carbon paper or thermal paper
- Documents with memo papers or sticky notes attached
55
Documents for Scanning
ATTENTION
z Using the Carrier Sheet
Be careful of the following when you use the Carrier Sheet:
- Do not stain, or cut the end with a black & white pattern because the Carrier Sheet will not be recognized properly.
- Do not place the Carrier Sheet upside down. Otherwise, a paper jam may occur and damage the Carrier Sheet and the document inside.
- Do not fold or pull the Carrier Sheet.
- Paper jams may occur when several small size documents such as photographs and postcards are placed inside the Carrier Sheet to be scanned at once. It is recommended that you scan such documents one at a time.
- If paper jams occur frequently, feed about 50 sheets of PPC paper (recycled paper) before scanning with the Carrier Sheet. The PPC paper can either be blank or printed.
z Storing the Carrier Sheet
Be careful of the following when you store the Carrier Sheet:
- Do not leave your document inside the Carrier Sheet for a long time. Otherwise, the ink on the document may be transferred onto the Carrier Sheet.
- To avoid deformation, do not use or leave the Carrier Sheet in high temperature places such as under direct sunlight or near a heating apparatus for a long time.
- To avoid deformation, store the Carrier Sheet on a flat surface without any weight on it.
