IMPORTANT
The documents to be scanned must satisfy certain criteria. Read the
following items carefully.
• When scanning multiple documents of different sizes, place the
documents so that they cover the entire span of the feed rollers by
aligning the centers and leading edges of the documents.
• It is recommended that documents exceeding 356 mm (14") size
are fed one sheet at a time.
• Scanning documents before the ink is dry can cause problems with
the scanner. Always make sure that the ink on a document is dry
before scanning it.
• Scanning documents that are written in pencil or similar material
may make the rollers and scanning glass dirty, which can lead to
smudges on the scanned image and transfer the dirt to subsequent

How to Place Documents
Scanning multiple documents
Standard paper feeding should be used when scanning multiple
documents of a standard size at one time. Standard paper feeding
enables multiple documents to be fed while separating each page.
1
Pull out the document eject tray.
The document eject tray can be adjusted to 3 lengths. Pull out the
document eject tray according to the length of the document. Also,
erect the document eject stopper on the front edge if necessary.
IMPORTANT
Pull the document eject tray forward according to the various
lengths.
2
Pull out the feed support.
Open the feed extension support when placing long documents.
3
Adjust the document guides to fit the width of the
document to be scanned.

21
4
Place the document.
After placing the document, align the document guides with both
edges of the document.
IMPORTANT
• When placing documents into the feed tray, take care not to cut
your hand on the edges of the paper.
• Before you place a document, check to make sure it does not
contain paper clips, staples, or other small metal objects. These
items may cause a fire or electrical shock, damage the document,
or cause a paper jam or scanner malfunction.
• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that may get caught in the
scanner while you are using it, as this may result in personal injury.
Be extra careful of neckties and long hair. If anything gets caught in
the scanner, immediately turn OFF the power switch, and
disconnect the power cord from the power outlet to stop scanning.
• Always smooth out any folds or curls in your documents before
placing them into the feeder. If the leading edge of a document is
curled, it may cause a paper jam.
• If feeding stops due to a system error or paper jam while the
scanner is scanning, resolve the problem, make sure that the
scanned image of the last page that was successfully fed has been
stored, and then resume scanning the remaining document pages.
• After you finish scanning, push in the document eject tray to prevent
damage to the scanner while it is not being used.
• When scanning multiple page documents that are fastened
together, such as invoices, place the documents so that the edge
that is fastened together is facing down.
• If double-feeding occurs, press the scanner's DFR button to
continue the scan, or clear the [Detect by Ultrasonic] check box in
the [Feeding] tab on the scanner driver settings screen. (See p. 26)
Placing Cards
When scanning cards, place one card at a time horizontally.
1
Adjust the document guides to fit the width of the card to
be scanned.
2
Place the card horizontally, with the reverse side facing
you, and the top of the card facing down.
CAUTION
• Place the cards one at a time.
• When scanning cards, place them to be fed horizontally. If you
place cards to be fed vertically, they may not be ejected properly,
and cards that get jammed may be damaged when you remove
them.

22
• When scanning cards, clear the [Detect by Ultrasonic] check box in
the [Feeding] tab on the scanner driver settings screen. (See p. 26)
Scanning with Carrier Sheets
To prevent damage to a document while scanning it, insert it into an
optional carrier sheet before loading it in the scanner.
1
Set the scanning conditions.
2
Insert the document into the carrier sheet.
.
3
Load the document with the sealed end of the carrier
sheet as the leading edge.
After placing the document, align the document guides with both
edges of the document.
CAUTION
If the document is not placed properly inside the carrier sheet,
you may get a document jam or not get a scan image as
intended.
IMPORTANT
• Insert documents straight into the center of the carrier sheet.
Proper scanning will not be possible if the document is too
close to either side, tilted, or protruding from the carrier sheet.
• The maximum thickness that can be scanned is 127g/m
2
. If the
thickness exceeds 127g/m
2
, the scanner may break down due
to problems such as paper jam.
• As a rough guide, replace the carrier sheet after 1,000 scanning
operations with a single 80g/m
2
(22 lb bond) sheet inserted.
Carrier sheet is a consumable item. Replace it with a new one
when necessary, if there is visible damage or smudging.

(118.1") long by setting the scanner to the Long Document mode.
IMPORTANT
By selecting the Long Document mode and setting the [Page Size]
on the scanner driver settings screen to Auto-detection, documents
of up to 3,000 mm (118.1") in length can be scanned. Note the
following when using the Long Document mode:
• When scanning in the Long Document mode, if the document is
placed on the scanner in a skewed position, it may hit the edges of
the feeding area and be damaged. Be careful to place the
document so that it is not skewed.
• When scanning with the Long Document mode, paper jam
detection may react slowly, resulting in damage to the document.
Be careful to avoid paper jams.
• When scanning long documents, scan the documents one at a time.

Replacing Consumable Parts
The two rollers (feed roller and retard roller) installed in the scanner
are consumable parts. The feed roller and retard roller wear with
scanning. If the feed roller and retard roller are worn, documents may
not feed correctly and paper jams and double feeds may occur.
When more than 200,000 pages have been fed (total number of pages
fed by the scanner), a message prompting you to replace the rollers is
displayed when the computer is started.
If this message begins to be displayed at startup, purchase an
exchange roller kit and replace the worn parts with the consumable
parts included in the kit (feed roller and retard roller). See p. 75 for
details about the exchange roller kit.
Furthermore, the counter in the scanner that records the number of
pages fed also needs to be reset when you replace the rollers. (See
p. 60)
Hint
Even before it becomes time to replace the rollers, scanned images
may become stretched in the vertical direction due to wear of the
rollers. If this happens, adjust the reduction ratio. (See p. 55)

Troubleshooting
Common Problems and Solutions
This section provides recommended solutions to common problems.
If you have a problem that is not solved by the following, contact your
local authorized Canon dealer.
Problem 1 The scanner will not turn on.
Solutions Confirm that the AC adapter is plugged firmly into a
power outlet.
Problem 2 The scanner is not recognized.
Solutions (1) Confirm that the scanner is properly connected to
the computer with a USB cable.
(2) Confirm that the scanner is turned on. See the
previous problem (1) if the scanner does not turn
on.
(3) The computer’s USB interface may not support the
scanner. The scanner cannot be guaranteed to
work with all USB interfaces.
(4) Confirm that the supplied USB cable is used to
connect the scanner to the computer. The scanner
cannot be guaranteed to work with all available
USB cables.
(5) If the scanner is connected to the computer via a
USB hub, try removing the hub and connecting
directly to the computer.
Problem 3 Documents feed askew (scanned images are
slanted).
Solutions (1) Align the document guides to fit the documents as
closely as possible, and load the documents so that
they feed straightly.
(2) Open the document feed extension support and
place the document.
(3) Enable [Automatically straightens skewed] in the
scanner driver settings.
(4) If many pages have been scanned since roller
cleaning, clean the rollers. If documents still feed
askew, roller replacement or other maintenance
may be needed. See “Maintenance” on p. 53 for
roller replacement procedures.
Problem 4 Documents are not scanned according to the
settings configured in the scanner driver.
Solutions When you scan using [Select document] panel
registered with CaptureOnTouch, the CaptureOnTouch
settings have priority over the scanner driver settings.
Edit settings in the [Select document] panel, or create a
new [Select document] panel using the desired
scanning conditions.
Problem 5 If white lines or streaks appear in scanned images.
Solutions Clean both sides of the scanner glass, and the rollers.
If a sticky substance such as glue or correction fluid is
found, carefully wipe with just enough pressure to clean
the area where the lines appear. If the problem cannot
be solved by cleaning, the internal glass may be
scratched. Contact your local authorized Canon dealer.

66
Problem 6 Pages are missing.
Solutions When the scanner driver’s [Scanning Side] setting is
[Skip Blank Page], documents with very little black may
be unintentionally skipped. Decrease the Set the
likelihood of skipping blank page value ("When you
want to delete the images of the blank pages in two-
sided documents" on p. 37) or set the [Scanning Side]
to another mode, such as simplex or duplex.
If pages are skipped due to the document double
feeding, see "Problem 7 Documents jam (or double-
feed)."
Problem 7 Documents jam (or double-feed).
Solutions (1) If the roller has been installed correctly, clean it if
necessary.
(2) Proper scanning may not be possible when
document pages stick together due to static
electricity. Fan the documents before you load
them.
(3) Manually feed the scanner one page at a time.
Problem 8 Multiple pages of scanned images cannot be saved
to a single file.
Solutions • Depending on the file format, multiple scanned image
pages cannot be saved as a single file with
CaptureOnTouch.
File type Processing for multiple pages
BMP, JPEG
Scanned images are always saved one
page per file.
PPTX
Multi-page images are always saved to
a single file.
TIFF, PDF
You can save multiple pages to a single
file by clicking and selecting [Save
all pages as one file] in the displayed
dialog box.
Problem 9 All of the placed documents have been scanned,
but the scanned image does not appear on the
application.
Solutions When [Panel-Feeding] or [Automatic Feeding] is
selected as the feeding method on the scanner driver's
Detail Settings screen, a scanning operation will not
continue after all of the documents are fed, as the
scanner awaits additional documents to be fed. You
can finish the operation and send the scanned images
to the application by pressing the Stop button on the
operating panel.
Problem 10 Memory becomes insufficient and scanning stops.
Solutions If you configure scanning conditions that use a large
amount of the computer’s memory, scanning may stop
because of insufficient memory. Although this depends
on the computer’s memory size, the possibility of
insufficient memory increases if any of the following
scanning conditions overlap.
• [Color Mode] is set to [24-bit Color]
• A large page size (e.g. Legal) is specified as the
[Page Size]. Alternatively, the page size is set to
[Scanner’s Maximum].
• A high resolution (600dpi etc.) is specified for [Dots
per inch].
If an error message appears due to insufficient memory
while scanning is in progress, exit the application,
change the scanning conditions (e.g. reduce the
resolution or page size) and then try scanning again. In
addition, the amount of memory used can be contained
by turning off [Moire Reduction] and [Prevent Bleed
Through/Remove Background] if they are set to on.
Problem 11 Double-feeding occurs when scanning a document
with multiple pages.
Solutions Press the scanner's DFR button to continue the scan,
or clear the [Detect by Ultrasonic] check box on the
scanner driver settings screen. (See p. 26)

67
Problem 12 The size detection and deskew functions fail.
Solutions When [Carrier sheet] is set to [Carrier sheet] in the
[Feeding] tab of the scanner driver settings screen and
you scan a document with black edges without
inserting it in a carrier sheet, the size detection and
deskew functions may fail. In such cases, disable the
size detection and deskew functions, or set [Carrier
sheet] to [None] in the [Feeding] tab.

68
Software Troubleshooting
This section describes troubleshooting problems and solutions for
operating the supplied software (CaptureOnTouch).
If scanning is too slow
(1) Close other running programs, if any.
(2) Scanning can be slowed down by memory shortage caused by
memory-resident applications such as anti-virus programs. Close
such memory-resident programs if necessary to free up memory
space.
(3) When insufficient hard disk space is available, the scanner may
be unable to create the necessary temporary files for scanned
data. Delete unneeded data on the hard disk to free up more
space.
(4) Scanning is slow if the computer’s USB port is not Hi-Speed USB
2.0 compliant.
(5) If using a common USB cable that is not Hi-Speed USB 2.0
compliant, replace the cable with the supplied compliant cable.
(6) When the scanner is connected to the computer via a USB hub
that is not Hi-Speed USB 2.0 compliant, remove the hub and
connect the scanner directly to the computer.
If scanned image files cannot be opened in an application
(1) Scanned images saved as multi-page TIFF files can be opened
only by programs that support this file format.
(2) Images saved as compressed TIFF files (single- as well as multi-
page) can only be opened by programs that support the
compressed format. This can occur with programs that are not
compatible with CaptureOnTouch. In this case, select “None” as
the image file compression format before scanning.
There is a display glitch on the UI screen of CaptureOnTouch.
Depending on the computer that you are using, a display glich may
occur on the UI screen when there are too many Scan mode panels,
Select output panels, or One Touch buttons. Delete any panels and
buttons that you will not use.

69
Useful tips
Here are some useful tips for scanning documents.
Where are scanned images saved? Can the save destination be

each image is always saved in a separate file.
When scanned images are saved in PDF or TIFF format, you can
specify multi- or single-page files. See also “Problem 8” in “Common
Problems and Solutions”.
Can I copy or back up scanner setting configurations?
The setting configurations can be backed up and restored using [Back
Up/Restore] on the [Maintenance] tab on the [Settings] dialog box.
The setting configurations can be backed up and restored using [Back
Up/Restore] on the [Basic settings] tab on the [Settings] dialog box.
