What the ADF Can Do
The Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) is a powerful addition to your HP ScanJet color scanner. With the ADF, you can automatically scan up to 25 pages at a time (more or less depending on the paper weight). In addition, you can:
•Automatically scan and convert multiple pages of text by using the ADF with optical character recognition (OCR) software. This dramatically reduces the time it takes to input text for
creating documents such as newsletters.
•Automatically scan multiple pages of images by using the ADF with image scanning software.
•Scan text and images at the same time by using the ADF with scanning software.
•Electronically store, retrieve, and send scanned documents as needed by
using document |

Step 1: Unpack the ADF |
Step 2: Connect
the ADF
Note If your ADF came with your scanner, start at Step 8 on page 1-6.
1Turn off the scanner by unplugging the power cord from the electrical outlet.
2Open the cover.
3Grasp both sides of the hinged end of the scanner cover and pull straight up until the cover comes off the scanner. You may need to move the cover from side to side to pull it off. Do not bend the cover too far back.

4Store the cover on a flat, smooth surface in a safe place. You will not need the scanner cover as long as the ADF is installed.
5Hold the ADF with the mounting posts perpendicular to the scanner.
6Align the mounting posts with the slots at the rear of the scanner body. Ensure both posts are in the same position.
7Lower the ADF until the mounting posts are seated firmly in the scanner.

8Hold the ADF connector cable so that the arrow on the plug is on top. This helps you align the pins in the plug with their holes in the socket on the scanner.
9Attach the ADF connector cable by pushing it firmly all the way into the round accessory connector socket labelled ADF on the back of the scanner.
You may need to tip the scanner/ADF assembly on its side to connect the cable:

Tips for Better Paper
Handling
Follow these tips when you scan with your ADF: |
.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... |
|
|
• Remove any paper from the scanner glass before |
|
||
|
|
||
using the ADF. |
|
|
|
• Straighten any curls or wrinkles from your pages |
|
|
|
before putting them on the document tray. If this is |
|
|
|
not possible, do not scan these pages using the ADF. |
|
|
|
Instead, use the scanner glass, or make a photocopy |
|
|
|
of the documents and scan |
|
|
|
the photocopies. |
|
|
|
• Do not use the ADF to scan |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sheets of uncommon paper |
|
|
|
or other media, such as: |
|
|
|
• Transparencies |
|
|
|
• Gummed-back paper |
|
|
|
• Magazine pages |
|
|
|
• Lightweight |
|
|
|

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
•Remove staples, paper clips, and any other materials from documents.
•Avoid documents with tears, perforations, or punch holes.
•Use the ADF with paper that fits the following dimensions:
|
Width |
Height |
|
||
Minimum |
5.8 inches |
8.3 inches |
|
14.8 cm |
21.1 cm |
|
|
|
Maximum |
8.5 inches |
14 inches |
|
21.6 cm |
35.6 cm |
|
|
|
•For paper smaller than the minimum size, use the scanner glass instead of the ADF. Paper smaller than the minimum may cause a paper jam.
•For paper lighter than 16-lb. bond (60 g/m2) or heavier than 28-lb. bond (105 g/m2), use the scanner glass instead of the ADF.
