Precautions
The following types of documents may not be scanned successfully:
 Documents of non-uniform thickness (e.g. envelopes, documents with
photographs attached)
 Wrinkled or curled documents
 Folded or torn documents
 Tracing paper
 Coated paper
 Carbon paper
 Photosensitive paper
 Perforated documents
 Documents that are neither square nor rectangular
 Very thin documents
 Photographs (photographic paper)
Also, do not scan the following types of documents:
 Paper-clipped or stapled documents
 Documents on which the ink is still wet
 Documents smaller than A8 size
 Documents wider than 304.8 mm (12.0 in.)
 Documents other than paper such as fabric, metal foil and OHP film.
 Important documents such as certificates and cash vouchers which
must not be damaged
 To scan a document that is semi-transparent, increase the
brightness level to avoid bleed-through.
 To prevent the rollers from becoming dirty, avoid scanning
documents that contain large areas filled with pencil lead.
If you have to scan such documents, make sure to perform
cleaning frequently.
A message may appear when you scan a lot of documents
written with pencil. For more details, refer to "7.2 Error
Indications on Operator Panel" (page 105).
 If multifeeds, pick errors, or paper jams occur frequently,
refer to "1.9 Adjusting the Paper Separation Force" (page
25) for troubleshooting.
 All documents must be flat on the leading edge. Make sure
that curls on the leading edge of the documents are kept
within the following range:
 Since carbonless papers contain chemical substances
which may harm the rollers (e.g. pick roller), be aware of the
following risks:
Cleaning: If paper jams occur frequently, clean
each roller. For information on how to
clean the rollers, refer to "Chapter 5
Daily Care" (page 81).
Parts replacement: The life of each roller may end sooner
compared to scanning wood containing
papers.
 When scanning wood containing papers, the life of each
roller may end sooner compared to scanning wood-free
papers.
 Rollers may be damaged when a photo/sticky note on the
document contacts the rollers during scanning.
 The surface of the document may be damaged when
scanning gloss papers such as photographs.
