Because carbonless paper may contain chemicals that can harm the ScanSnap internal rollers, it
is recommended that you use the Carrier Sheet to scan such documents.
Make sure to clean the rollers occasionally to maintain the scanner performance when scanning
carbonless paper directly without using the Carrier Sheet. For details about how to perform
cleaning, refer to "Cleaning the Inside of the ScanSnap" (page 128).
Depending on the type of carbonless paper, the life span of the scanner may be shortened
compared to scanning office paper.

documents being damaged or scanned incorrectly

ATTENTION
l Using the Carrier Sheet
Be careful of the following when you use the Carrier Sheet:
- Do not stain, or cut the end with a black & white pattern. Otherwise, the Carrier Sheet will not be
recognized properly.
- Do not place the Carrier Sheet upside down. Otherwise, a paper jam may occur and damage
the Carrier Sheet and the document inside.
- Do not fold or pull the Carrier Sheet.
- Paper jams may occur when several small size documents such as photographs and postcards
are placed inside the Carrier Sheet to be scanned at once. It is recommended that you scan
such documents one at a time.
l Storing the Carrier Sheet
Be careful of the following when you store the Carrier Sheet:
- Do not leave your document inside the Carrier Sheet for a long time. Otherwise, the ink on the
document may be transferred onto the Carrier Sheet.
- Do not leave the Carrier Sheet in high temperature places such as under direct sunlight or near
a heating apparatus for a long time. Also, do not use the Carrier Sheet in high temperature
places. The Carrier Sheet may be deformed.
- To avoid deformation, store the Carrier Sheet on a flat surface without any weight on it.
