The Main Parts of the Scanner
Introduction
Place your originals on the glass plate or into the automatic document feeder (ADF), depending
on the size and type of the original, and the copy modes that you want to use. Both sides of two-
sided originals can be scanned simultaneously. The table below describes the glass plate and the
ADF.
Overview of the feeding possibilities
Component Function
Glass plate Place the originals on the glass plate to copy bound orig-
inals (such as books and magazines), heavyweight or
lightweight originals, and transparencies.
Automatic document feeder (ADF) Place the originals into the ADF when you want to copy
several originals at the same time. The originals are au-
tomatically fed to the glass plate and scanned. Two-si-
ded originals can also be scanned as two-sided docu-
ments.
The ADF has a capacity of 300 sheets (80 g/m² or 20 lb
bond).
CAUTION
Do not insert your fingers into the gaps around the originals tray, because your fingers may get
caught.
IMPORTANT
Be careful not to drop objects such as paper clips into the gaps because this can cause damage
to the machine.
NOTE
• If the original document consists of more than 300 sheets (based on 80 g/m² or 20 lb bond
media), you must split the original document into smaller partial sets (subsets). Then you
must use the [Combined copy job] function to scan the subsets individually and create one
document containing all the subsets.
• If the glass plate is dirty, the print quality may deteriorate. In this case, clean the feeding belt
and the glass plate.
• Blocking the original output area can result in damaging originals, and printing may not take
place correctly. Therefore, do not place objects into the original output area.
