EPSON GT-15000 Tip: If the edges of your document don’t scan properly, move it in one-quarter inch from the edges of the document table. You can remove the document cover if you need to scan a thick item—such as a book—that doesn’t fit under the cover. Simply lift the back of the cover straight up. When you reattach the cover, line the rods up with the positioning holes and lower the cover into place. Warning: Before removing the document cover, make sure you raise it all the way up.
