3.5 Using the Carrier Sheet
Use the carrier sheet according to the condition of the document to be scanned.
In the case of scanning the following types of media, always place the document in the carrier sheet
before loading it into the scanner.
• To scan a document that is smaller than Letter size or a document of non-standard size
• To scan a document that is as limp as or limper than a newspaper
• To scan a document that tears or becomes damaged easily
• To scan a document that is considerably damaged
• To scan a document that is badly creased
• To scan a curled document
• To scan a transparent or translucent document
• To scan a document to which other pieces of paper have been attached
• When the target document cannot be properly advanced to the initial position of scanning (because
the target document is not flat, or otherwise hard to load in the scanner)
As shown in the figure below, place the document in the carrier sheet with the document’s surface to
be scanned face up (against the transparent top sheet). For scanning, load the carrier sheet into the
scanner with the document’s target surface (the transparent top sheet) face up.

Checkpoint
• When handling the carrier sheet, be very careful not to scratch or otherwise damage it.
• If you use the carrier sheet when scanning color documents, the colors may shift slightly
in some cases.
• In the case of CSX510-09 the carrier sheet is an optional item.
