Scanning thick media
Scanning thick media
NOTE To scan thick media you may need to change the inser-
tion slot height and this can affect the copier’s automatic
control of border lines between the cameras – called
Stitching.
To scan thick media, you can change the insertion slot height
on your copier from 0 to 15 mm (0 to .6"). You can fit the slot
to the thickness of your original.
To scan thick originals:
a - Open the copier cover.
b - Press down on the platen as you pull first one slider,
and then the other (left and right), towards the copier’s
center until the media thickness adjustment sliders
found at each side are the same setting.

quickref.fm Page 16 Monday, February 25, 2002 4:09 PM
c - Close the copier cover.
d - Load the thick original you wish to scan. Center load-
ing is recommended with thick originals as the media
transport rollers grip more evenly.
e - Make a test scan to check for errors. Bulky thick media
needs to be supported with both hands on its way in
and out of the scanner.
Scanning thick media
Errors will be easier to see in an image with a clear diagonal line. If lines seem uneven, do the following:

Previewing copies
When activated, the Resize Paper Frame Tool partitions the
areas around the Paper Frame into sections. When a section is
touched, the closest frame side or corner is resized to the new
position.
Move Tool
Move the image to get any part of it centered or visible in the
Preview Window.
There are two ways to move the image:
■ By dragging anywhere in the image window.
■ Centering by touch a point on the screen and that point will
then be centered in the preview window.
Position the Paper Frame
You can position the Paper Frame directly in the preview and
visually set your copy area.
There are two ways to move the frame:
■ By dragging anywhere on the screen. Imagine you are
gripping hold of the frame and dragging it around over the
image.
■ Centering by touching a point on the screen and that point
becomes the new center for the Paper Frame.
This method is especially useful when you are making spot
test strips for outputting on the printer. It lets you continuously

quickref.fm Page 20 Monday, February 25, 2002 4:09 PM
and rapidly reposition the frame on important areas that you
want tested.
■ Dragging the edges will resize the paper frame and is an
alternative to the Resize Paper Frame tool.
Align left - Align right
The original appears crooked in the Preview Window. You do
not need to reload the original. Click the align buttons to align
