Step-by-Step Scanning Instructions
This section contains step-by-step instructions for scanning an image. Although the
Macintosh interface is shown, the Windows steps are the same.
Placing Your Original Document
1. Raise the scanner cover and place your document face down on the document
table. If you’re scanning a transparency, the optional transparency unit should be
installed (see page 48).
2. Position the document so
the horizontal and vertical
edges are carefully aligned
with the scales on the top
and right side of the
document table.
3. Close the document cover
slowly. Be careful not to
move the document.
You can remove the document cover if you need to scan a thick
item—such as a photo in an album—that doesn’t fit under the
cover. For details, see “Scanning Oversized Documents” in your
electronic EPSON Expression 836XL User’s Guide.
