Paper thickness: 40–127 g/m2 Smaller than A7 size: 127 g/m2 (34 lbs.) only Maximum number of sheets loadable on the hopper Page thickness (g/m²) Maximum number of sheets 40 52 64 75 80 90 104 127 (11 lbs.) (14 lbs.) (17 lbs.) (20 lbs.) (21 lbs.) (24 lbs.) (28 lbs.) (34 lbs.
Loading Documents on the ADF For documents with mixed page sizes and thicknesses Document thickness The ratio of page thickness between the thickest and thinnest pages must be less than 1.5. Document size The ratio of width and height between the largest page and smallest page must be less than 1.5. (The smallest page is A6.) Example: If the smallest page is A4 size, then the largest page can be up to A3 size, and if the smallest page is A6, then the largest can be A5.
Loading Documents on the ADF ∫ Scanning documents with pages of same sizes Cautions: ≥ Please remove any staples from the document before scanning. ≥ Glued or curled documents may cause a paper jam or damage the unit, so please scan using the flatbed. 1 Set the manual feed selector to [AUTO] or [MANUAL]. [AUTO] [AUTO]: Auto feeding [MANUAL]: Manual feeding ≥ When manually feeding a document, feed the document 1 page at a time. ≥ When scanning important documents or bound documents, feed them manually.
Loading Documents on the ADF 4 Adjust the document guides slightly larger than the actual size of the documents. 5 When using long paper, pull out the hopper extension tray from the hopper. Then raise and adjust the exit stopper to the position a little longer than the actual length of the document.
Loading Documents on the ADF 6 Place the documents on the hopper Portrait with the side to be scanned facing up. Then push them in the direction of the arrow until they stop. ≥ The amount of documents should not exceed the limit mark on the document guide. This may cause a paper jam or skew.

Document 6 Close the document cover gently. 7 Open your scanning application*1 and scan the documents. Flatbed glass ≥ If the document cover is slammed, the document will move and may not be scanned properly.
Using Control Sheets By using control sheets, you can change the scanning conditions in the middle of scanning. Placing a control sheet in the middle of a document lets you change the scanning conditions for all pages scanned after the control sheet. Control sheets are located on the included CD-ROM.
Using Control Sheets ∫ About Printing Control Sheets ≥ Print the control sheet at the specified size; do not enlarge or reduce the size. ≥ When printing the control sheet, make sure that the pattern is 25 mm (1 in.) from the top of the page and centered horizontally. Center of the page 25 mm (1 in.) ≥ Use the control sheet that is the same size as the document you are scanning. ≥ Be careful not to get the control sheet dirty.
Changing the Reference Plate Setting You can choose a background color to be scanned from white (black) to black (white). The scanner comes from factory set to black. The reference plate (B), reference plate (F) and flatbed sheet setting must be changed simultaneously. Anytime the background color is changed from its previous setting, the shading adjustment must be performed. Please refer to page 47 for more information regarding the shading adjustment.

Troubleshooting If a problem occurs while the unit is being used, check the following items and check the scanner status with the User Utility. If the unit still malfunctions, turn it OFF, unplug the power cord and call for service. Symptom Possible Cause Remedy The power cord is not plugged in. Insert the power plug firmly. Problem with power supply. Disconnect the scanner from the electric outlet and call for service. The scanner is not connected to the computer correctly.
Troubleshooting Symptom Possible Cause Remedy The document guides are not adjusted to the size of the document to be scanned. The document to be scanned is set aslant on the hopper tray. Adjust the document guides properly to the size of the document to be scanned. Right and left sides of the document to be scanned are not the same in height, because of curl and fold. Remove curl and fold then reduce the amount of the document. The document to be scanned was loaded face down (upside down).
Shading Adjustment ¥What is the purpose of the shading adjustment? The shading adjustment function corrects variations in the lamp intensity and pixel sensor sensitivity, and reduces unevenness in density in scanned images. It can be carried out by means of the User Utility using the special shading paper, which is provided with this scanner.
