Document Quality
This section describes the types and weights of paper that the scanner can read and precautions in
preparing documents to ensure maximal scanner functioning.
Document type
The recommended paper type for document is as follows:
• Woodfree paper
• Plain paper (for example, the paper type specified for XEROX 4024)
When using all other type of paper, test feed a few sheets with the ADF to ensure the paper feeds properly
before performing a large-scale reading operation.
Any paper can be used or the flatbed. However, grand color specification must satisfy the specification
described in the section of Grounding Color Area.
Paper weight
The paper weight should fall within the following ranges:
• 52 to 127 g/m
2
(13.9 to 34 lb), 127g/m
2
(34lb) for A8

The following documents may be difficult to read properly by ADF. A preliminary document feed test may
be necessary to avoid unexpected errors. If document slip or jam in the ADF (JAM error) or double feed
occurs frequently, read the documents manually by flatbed.
