Positioning the Scanner Positioning the Scanner Horizontal Position The document cover fully opens to allow easy scanning of large or bound documents. An oversized document can be scanned section by section into a single image using the stitch-assist function of CanoScan Toolbox. For details, see the Scanning Guide. Hold the document cover with one hand, and press and hold at the base hinge as you carefully lower the cover all the way down. Do not place items that weigh 2.0 kg or more on the scanner. The scanner may not work or you may break the document glass if you press down the document glass firmly. Cover the scanner with a black cloth if external light enters around the scanned item. Upright Position If you are scanning thin documents (i.e., a single sheet or double-folded sheet), this position saves the most space. Thick documents or film cannot be scanned in this position. Pull out the stand on the bottom of the scanner until it clicks, and set the scanner upright on a flat stable surface. Gently open the document cover as far as it goes (stops at approximately 40q) and slide down the document along the document cover. Top Bottom Alignment Mark • Do not force the document cover open; it does not fully open when the scanner is in the upright position. • Always close and secure the document cover first when lifting the scanner in the upright position.
