CHAPTER 4 OPERATIONS 4.1 Turning on the Power 4.2 Reading a Document in Flatbed Mode 4.3 Reading Documents in ADF Mode Documents can be read in the flatbed mode or automatic document feeder (ADF) mode. In the flat-bed mode, each document is placed on the document bed and is read one by one. In ADF mode, documents are fed and read automatically. This section explains how to turn on the power and how to read documents. 4.1 Turning on the Power This section explains how to turn on the power.
4.2 Reading a Document in Flatbed Mode This section explains how to read a document placed on the document bed. 4.2.1 Reading a standard-size document If the size of the document is smaller than the document bed, read the document using the following procedure: 4–2 ① Open the document cover. ② Place the document face down on the document board. Correct any curled or folded parts of the document.
Document cover Reference mark Document Indication panel Document bed Figure 4.1 Flatbed reading 3 Portrait mode Short side Long side Landscape mode Document bed 3 Document 4.2.2 Reading a page from a thick book To read a page from a thick book, remember the following points: ① Do not close the document cover forcibly. Keep the cover open for reading. ② Any document parts that are not in contact with the glass will not be read correctly. ③ Do not move the document during the read operation.
4.2.3 Reading a document larger than the document board If the size of the document is larger than the document board, read the document using the following procedure: ① Open the document cover at an angle of about 80°, then slide the cover to the direction of the arrow to remove it. ② Place the document face down on the document bed. ③ Place the document cover over the document. ④ Read the document. ⑤ After the read operation, remove the document, replace the document cover.
4.3 Reading Documents in ADF Mode This section explains how to read documents using the automatic document feeder. If the following steps are not closely followed, a feed error may occur. ① Check the documents as follows: (a) Paper quality • Wood-free paper. • PPC paper; Specified by XEROX Corporation. (b) Paper weight • 13.91bs to 27.81bs (c) Paper size • Letter, Double Letter, Legal, A3, A4, A5, B4, B5 (d) Items to avoid • The following documents may be hard to read by ADF.
NOTICE: Paper should be straightened to fit the condition below. More than 30 mm Feed direction Less than 3 mm Top of the paper ② Less than 5 mm Read surface More than 30 mm Feed direction Read surface Top of the paper Switch the paper select lever. Switch the lever in the following procedures: • Open the automatic document feeder (ADF) while lifting up the ADF lever. • Set the paper select lever. Plain paper: “NORMAL” Heavy paper: “THICK” • Reset the ADF.
③ Pull up the ADF paper chute as follows: • Hold the document cover with one hand and pull up the ADF paper chute with the other hand to set the shaft in position B. ADF paper chute Document cover ADF paper chute Rotation direction Shaft Position for storage position A Position for operation position B Figure 4.3 ADF paper chute setting ④ Fan the documents as follows: • Take a 15 to 20 mm thickness of documents. Lightly hold both ends with both hands. Bend the documents into an arch as shown below.
⑤ Take documents to be placed in the ADF paper chute. The thickness of the documents to be placed in the ADF paper chute is limited depending on the size of the documents as follows: A4 or letter size or smaller: 4 mm or less Size larger than A4: 2 mm or less ⑥ Angling the documents Angle the document edges as follows: • Place the documents face down with the top to the left as shown in A. The long side is the top for landscape mode and the short side is the top for portrait mode.
⑦ Open the right and left guides of the ADF paper chute about 5 mm wider than the document width. ⑧ Place the documents face down onto the ADF paper chute with the top edges facing the automatic feeder hole. ⑨ Adjust the guides to the document sides. Skewing may occur if there is a gap between the guides and documents. ⑩ Slide the documents down until they touch the far end of the automatic feeder opening. If the documents hit the far end hard, two or more pages may be fed at once.

CHAPTER 5 MAINTENANCE 5.1 Removing Jammed Documents 5.2 Notes on Daily Use 5.3 Cleaning 5.4 Consumables/Periodical replacement parts This section explains how to remove jammed documents, and provides notes on daily use and cleaning. 5.1 Removing Jammed Documents If documents jam while being fed by the ADF, remove the jammed documents as follows: ① Remove the documents from the ADF paper chute. ② Pulling up the ADF lever, open the automatic document feeder. ③ Remove the jammed documents.
5.2 Notes on Daily Use Note the following points on daily use: NOTICE • Do not look directly at the light source during the read operation. Keep the document cover in place. NOTICE • See Section 5.3 “Cleaning”, to clean the document cover, document holding pad, document bed, and the automatic document feeder. Especially, clean the automatic document feeder (ADF) periodically. For the cleaning cycle, see Section 5.3.2, “Cleaning the ADF.” 5.3 Cleaning This section explains how to clean the image scanner.
5.3.2 Cleaning the ADF Clean the automatic document feeder (ADF) once every 5,000 pages. The cycle depends on the types of documents used (paper quality, a level of toner fusing on paper). ① Pull the ADF lever up to open the ADF. ② Use the dry cloth or a cloth with ethyl alcohol to softly remove dirt and dust as follows. Pad: Wipe the pad in a downward direction (indicated by the arrow). Be careful not to hook the pick spring when wiping. Glass: Wipe the glass lightly.
5.4 Consumables/Periodical replacement parts 5.4.1 Parts number and replacement cycle Customer is responsible to change these items periodically. No. Part name Part number Replacement cycle 1 Pad ASY PA02201-0020 Every 100,000 pages or annually (*1) 2 Pick roller PA02201-0025 (*2) Every 200,000 pages or annually (*1) *1: These replacement cycle may vary by the paper quality and cleaning result. When PPC paper is used, replacement cycle may be 300,000 sheets or more by good cleaning.
③ Insert the pad assembly into the ADF frame hole (the bigger one), slide the assembly to the direction of the arrow until it clicks. ADF frame Pad assy NOTICE : Set the paper select lever to "N", before removing pad ASY (See Section 4.3). NOTICE : Pad can be replaced by aligning the holes of the pad with the pins of the pad holder. Pad holder Pad Pick spring 5.4.3 Replacing pick roller Replace the pickroller as follows.

APPENDIX B B.1 Test mode for maintenance CAUTION: Please follow the procedure here or the offset data may be changed incorrectly. If the scanner does not react as the procedure below, turn off the scanner and start from the beginning. (1) Activating a test mode Open the ADF cover and set the sensors to the following state before turning on the image scanner.
(2) Activating the continuous operation test Open the ADF and close it again. If no document is loaded on the ADF within five seconds after closing the ADF cover, the image scanner runs in flatbed mode. If documents are loaded on the ADF within five seconds after closing the ADF cover, the image scanner continuously feeds the document from ADF. Once the image scanner start reading documents in the flatbed mode, it does not feed documents from ADF even if documents are loaded on the ADF.
