1. Adjust the Floor Extender to the fully extended position.
2. For proper feeding, the Floor Extender should be extended to support the documents in the feed hopper and prevent
them from tipping or skewing.
Document / card preparation
The SmartSource Micro Elite IJ is optimized to work with the majority of normal financial documents .However, the unit will
function acceptably with a wide range of paper weights and thicknesses, from thicker tab-cards to thin multipart form
stock, as well as specialty items like ATM envelopes.
If you process such documents, you may notice minor degradations in performance, degraded stop rate or increased
noise while running.
1. For trouble-free operation, documents and cards should be clean, dry and free of attached objects such as staples,
paper clips, sticky tape or rubber bands.
2. Smooth out creases, folds and dog-eared corners.
a. Creased and folded documents may cause shadows or other defects in document images.
b. Dog-eared corners may cause the machine to stop because it appears that part of the document is
missing. This is not an error, but a deliberate feature to prevent the processing of incomplete documents.
3. Torn documents should be removed, or placed in a carrier envelope for proper processing
a. A torn document may be further damaged if it is processed again.
