Basic Operation
2-3 Placing Documents
There are two methods for feeding documents, the Page Separation mode
and Bypass mode. Feeding pages continuously from a stack of documents
placed in the feed tray is called the Page Separation mode. Feeding
documents one sheet at a time or feeding documents consisting of multiple
pages that are attached, is called the bypass mode. The document feed
method can be changed by moving the feed selection lever.
IMPORTANT
• 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.
• When continuously scanning documents on thin paper in the page
separation mode, the pages may become wrinkled or folded and
cause a paper jam. If this happens, scan the document in the
bypass mode.
CAUTION
• 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. 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.
