Scanning documents The scanner must be enabled to scan documents. This is done through the
scanning application. After enabling the scanner, depending on how your
scanner is configured, your scanner will either automatically start scanning
(i.e., auto start), or will start scanning when you press the Start/Pause button
on the Operator Control Panel. For more information, see the documentation
that supports your scanning application.
1. After you prepare your documents according to the guidelines in the
previous section, be sure your scan job is set up in your scanning
application as desired.
2. Place the documents you want to scan in the input elevator.
3. Start scanning via your scanning application.
Starting, stopping and
pausing the scanner
You can manually start, stop or pause the scanner while scanning documents.
• To temporarily pause scanning, press the Start/Pause button on the
Operator Control Panel once.
• Press the Start/Pause on the Operator Control Panel to restart scanning
after it has been paused.
• If you want to stop scanning, press Stop on the Operator Control Panel.
NOTE: During scanning the scanner monitors its own internal image buffer
memory. In order to prevent overwriting images before the host
computer can retrieve them, the scanner will automatically pause the
feeder and will resume scanning when enough internal buffer memory
is free.
Quick clean using the Start/
Pause button
When the scanner is in the paused state, the scanner cover can be opened
without disabling the scanner. If you notice streaks on your images while
scanning, you can press the Start/Pause button to quickly clean the imaging
guides in the middle of scanning a batch of documents. To do this:
• Press the Start/Pause button, open the scanner cover, clean the imaging
guides, close the scanner cover and press the Start/Pause button. See the
section entitled, “Cleaning the imaging guides - basic” in Chapter 5 for
procedures.
