  If the scanned image from your Panasonic Scanner's ADF is slanted, it might be due to the document guides not being properly adjusted to the document size, or the document itself being askew. Adjust the document guides to fit the document's size correctly. Also, remove any curl or folds from the document and reduce the amount of the document.
