The scanner is scanning items very slowly When scanning to edit text, the optical character recognition (OCR) causes the scanner to scan more slowly, which is normal. Wait for the item to scan. NOTE: Windows: For the best OCR results, scanner compression should be set to the minimum compression level or be disabled. Scanning at a higher resolution than necessary increases scanning time and creates a larger file with no additional benefit. If you are scanning at a high resolution, set the resolution to a lower level to increase scanning speed.

Scanned pages are missing at the scan destination When scanning, pages that stick together are scanned as one item. Check to confirm that scanned pages are not stuck together. Scanned pages are out of order at the scan destination If scanned pages are out of order at the scan destination, check the following. ● Verify that the page order of the original document is correct before placing the document face down into the input tray. ● Make sure that there are no staples, paper clips, or any other attached material (such as adhesive notes) that might cause the pages to feed incorrectly. ● Verify that pages are not stuck together. Scanned files are too large If scan files are too large, check the following. ● Most scanning software allows a smaller file size to be selected when selecting the output file type. For more information, see the Help for the scanning software being used. ● Verify the scan resolution setting (for more information, see the Help for the scanning software being using): - 200 dpi is sufficient for storing documents as images. - For most fonts, 300 dpi is sufficient for using optical character recognition (OCR) to create editable text. - For Asian fonts and small fonts, choosing a higher resolution is recommended. NOTE: For some special black dot background scans, saving the image as a .tif file might make the image smaller. Scanning at a higher resolution than necessary creates a larger file with no additional benefit. ● Color scans create larger files than do black and white scans. ● If scanning a large number of pages at one time, consider scanning fewer pages at a time to create more, smaller files.

The scanner is scanning items very slowly
When scanning to edit text, the optical character recognition (OCR) causes the scanner to scan more slowly, which
is normal. Wait for the item to scan.
NOTE:
Windows:
For the best OCR results, scanner compression should be set to the minimum compression
level or be disabled.
Scanning at a higher resolution than necessary increases scanning time and creates a larger file with no
additional benefit. If you are scanning at a high resolution, set the resolution to a lower level to increase scanning
speed.
The scanner scans only one side of a two-sided page
Verify that the selected scan shortcut specifies two-sided scanning.
Scanned pages are missing at the scan destination
When scanning, pages that stick together are scanned as one item. Check to confirm that scanned pages are not
stuck together.
Scanned pages are out of order at the scan destination
If scanned pages are out of order at the scan destination, check the following.
Verify that the page order of the original document is correct before placing the document face down into
the input tray.
Make sure that there are no staples, paper clips, or any other attached material (such as adhesive notes) that
might cause the pages to feed incorrectly.
Verify that pages are not stuck together.
Scanned files are too large
If scan files are too large, check the following.
Most scanning software allows a smaller file size to be selected when selecting the output file type. For more
information, see the Help for the scanning software being used.
