Familiarize yourself with the following points: ● When scanning a multi-page document, pages must be grouped together so that they have the same size, thickness and weight. Scanning different types of paper at one time can cause the scanner to jam. ● Scanning documents before the ink is dry can cause problems with the scanner. Always make sure that the ink on a document is dry before scanning it. ● Scanning documents that are written in pencil or similar material can make the rollers dirty, which can then transfer the dirt to subsequent documents. Always clean the rollers after scanning a document written in pencil. ● When scanning a double-sided document that is printed on thin paper, the image on the opposite side of each page may show through. Before scanning, adjust the brightness setting in your application software. ● Scanning the following types of documents can cause paper jams or malfunctions. To scan such documents, make photocopies of the documents and then scan the photocopies. Wrinkled or creased documents Documents with paper clips or staples Extremely thin, translucent paper Curled documents Carbon paper Paper with square holes Torn documents Surfacetreated paper Using the Scanner 47
