Loading a document
IMPORTANT
• Insert only one page into the scanner at a time. Insert the next page only after the first one is completely
scanned. Inserting more than one page at a time may cause your scanner to malfunction.
• DO NOT pull on the document while it is feeding.
• DO NOT use paper that is curled, wrinkled, folded, ripped, stapled, paper clipped, pasted, or taped.
• DO NOT try to scan cardboard or fabric.
NOTE
• Make sure there is enough space behind the paper ejection slot. The scanned document will be ejected
from the rear of the scanner.
• Make sure documents that have ink or correction fluid on them are completely dry.
• Certain types of plastic cards may be scratched when scanned. To prevent damage to the card,
we recommended using the Carrier Sheet. For more information, see Loading the Carrier Sheet
on page 9.
a Set your document a face up in the feeder slot b and align the left edge of the page with the left edge
of the feeder slot

Important Carrier Sheet tips
To avoid document jams, do not load the Carrier Sheet upside down. For more information, see Loading
the Carrier Sheet on page 9.
To avoid document jams, do not put several small documents into the Carrier Sheet at the same time.
Insert only one document into the Carrier Sheet at a time.
Do not write on the Carrier Sheet, as the writing may be seen in scanned documents. If the Carrier Sheet
becomes dirty, wipe it with a dry cloth.
Do not leave documents in the Carrier Sheet for extended periods of time, as the printing on the documents
may bleed through onto the Carrier Sheet.

Other difficulties
The file size is too
large.
The size of the file will depend upon
many factors. The physical size of the
document and the amount of text /
graphics on each page are factors that
will affect the resulting file size. These
factors cannot be changed.
To produce the smallest scan file for a given
document, use the lowest resolution and
Black and White mode, and scan the smallest area
possible. Using the opposite settings (scanned
in the highest resolution, in the Color mode, and
scanning the largest area possible) will produce
the largest-sized file.
