Documents The scanner can scan documents ranging in size from business cards and checks to LTR/A4. The document sizes that this scanner can scan are shown below. Plain Paper Size Width: 1.97" to 8.5" (50 mm to 216 mm) Length: 2.12" to 14.02" (53.9 mm to 356mm)* Paper weight: (Page separation mode) 14 to 32 lb bond (52 to 128 g/m2) 0.0024" to 0.0059" (0.06 mm to 0.15 mm) Paper weight: (Bypass mode) 11 to 42 lb bond (40 to 157 g/m2) 0.002" to 0.0079" (0.05 mm to 0.20 mm) * You can scan documents up to 39.2" (1000 mm) long by setting the scanner to the Long Document mode. (See "Setting the Long Document Mode" on page 24.) IMPORTANT A document must meet the following criteria to be scannable: • When scanning multiple documents of different sizes, place the documents so that they cover the entire span of the feed rollers. • It is recommended that documents exceeding LTR, 11.69" (A4, 297 mm) size are fed one sheet at a time. • 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 may make the rollers and scanning glass dirty, which can lead to smudges on the scanned image and transfer the dirt to subsequent documents. Always clean the internal parts of the scanner after scanning such documents. • When scanning a two-sided document that is printed on thin paper, the image on the opposite side of each page may show through. In this case, adjust the scanning intensity in the application software before scanning the document. • It is recommended that thin documents are fed one sheet at a time. • Scanning the following types of documents can cause a paper jam or malfunction. To scan such a document, make a photocopy of the document and then scan the photocopy. Wrinkled or creased documents Carbon paper Curled documents Coated paper Torn documents Documents with paper clips or staples Extremely thin, translucent paper Business Card Size: 1.97" x 2.12" (50 mm x 53.9 mm) or larger Paper weight: 140 lb bond (300g/m2) 0.0138" (0.35 mm) or less IMPORTANT If a stack of business cards cannot be fed properly, reduce the number of cards in the stack.

Take care of the orientation when placing cards. • Embossed cards may not be able to be scanned correctly, depending on the type of embossment. 9
