Preparing documents for scanning

• A batch of documents to be fed into the scanner must be arranged so that the leading edges of all documents are aligned and centered under the automatic document feeder. This allows the feeder to introduce documents into the scanner one at a time. Documents must be positioned face down for scanning.

• Staples and paper clips in documents may damage the scanner. Remove all staples and paper clips before scanning.

• Torn, damaged, or crushed pages can be transported successfully through the scanner. However, no scanner can transport every possible type of damaged paper. If in doubt about whether a specific damaged document can be transported through the scanner, place the document in a clear protective sleeve. Sleeves should be manually fed, one at a time, folded edge first, while lifting the gap release lever.

• When scanning documents in a clear protective sleeve, the input tray guides must be adjusted to accommodate the width of the sleeve.

NOTE: Kodak scanners have been tested with a range of documents that

represent the broad spectrum of document types found in the most common business applications. Optimal scanner performance is achieved when scanning documents within the recommended document specifications. Scanning documents that are outside of these specifications may lead to undesirable results in terms of scanner reliability, image quality, and/or consumable life.

Safety information • When placing the scanner, make sure that the electrical power outlet is

located within 1.52 metres (5 feet) of the scanner and is easily accessible.

CAUTION: The scanner and power supply must only be used indoors in a

dry location.

• Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for information about chemicals used in Kodak products are available on the Kodak web site at www.kodak.com/go/MSDS. Refer to Appendix B, “Supplies and Accessories,” for catalog number information.

Warning labels

CAUTION: Moving parts. Avoid contact.

CAUTION:

WARNING: The scanner cover must be in place and closed during

scanner operation.

Hot surface. Avoid contact.

User precautions Users and their employer need to observe the common sense precautions

applicable to the operation of any machinery. These include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Do not wear loose clothing, unbuttoned sleeves, etc.

• Do not wear loose jewelry, bracelets, bulky rings, long necklaces, etc.

• Hair should be kept short, using a hair net if needed or by tying long hair up in a bundle.

• Remove all loose objects from the area that could be drawn into the machine.

• Take sufficient breaks to maintain mental alertness.

• Follow the recommended Kodak cleaning procedures. Do not use air, liquid or gas spray cleaners. These cleaners only displace the dust, dirt or debris to another location within the scanner, which could cause the scanner to malfunction.

Supervisors should review their practices and make the compliance with these precautions a part of the job description for the operator of the Kodak i100 Series Scanners and any other mechanical devices.
