3.3 Loading Documents
This section describes how to load documents onto the scanner.
■ How to load documents
1. Align the edges of the document.
How to align the edges of the document is as follows:
1) Align both edges of the document, and you can scan the document correctly.
2) Check the number of sheets in the stack.
As a guide, load up to the following number of sheets onto the feeder:
- With A4 or smaller size paper, the thickness of the document stack must be
0.2 in. (5 mm) or less (about 50 sheets of 20 lb or 80 g/m
2
paper)
Before loading a batch of sheets onto the scanner, do the following so that each sheet of paper
can be fed smoothly:
1) Separate the document into batches, each of which has a thickness of 5 mm or less.
2) Hold the both ends of a batch, and bend it as shown in the figure below.
3) Hold the batch firmly with both hands so that the both edges remain beveled,
and then unbend the batch as shown in the figure below.
HINT
Scanning accuracy increases
further if the document is loaded
onto the feeder making a little tilt on
the leading edge of the document
as shown in the right figure.
ATTENTION
Do not scan more than 50 sheets at one time. If the batch is thicker
than this limit, the creation of a file may fail.
