Feeding Documents Manually in the ADF
Documents can also be loaded manually one sheet at a time
in the ADF.
Normally, in automatic feeding, the scanner stops scanning
once all the documents loaded in the ADF paper chute have
been scanned. In manual feeding, the scanner waits for the
next document to be loaded within a specified time. Scanning
will continue as long as another document is loaded within the
set time, and stops if no document is loaded.
By using this method, you can perform scanning as you check
the documents one by one.
Manual feeding is effective in the following cases.
z
To scan as you check the contents of each sheet.
z
To scan documents that cause multifeed or paper jam when loaded
together in the same batch.
z
To continue scanning documents such as magazine/newspaper
clippings that cannot be loaded together.
