Chapter 2 — Installing the scanner for the Macintosh computer 24
If you have acquired and installed a transparency option (Refer to Appendix
A , “ U s in g t h e t r an s p ar e n c y o p t i o n ” ) or a automatic document feeder (Refer to
Appendix B, “Using the automatic document feeder” ), you do not have to
remove it for scanning reflective originals: just raise the transparency option
or the automatic document feeder.
2. Place the original face down on the glass plate with the top side against the
middle of the front ruler.
The optical performance of a CCD scanner is always best near the middle of
the glass plate.
If you put more than one original on the glass plate, position them as close to
the center line as possible to optimize quality.
3. Lower the document cover of the scanner.
The adjustable document cover makes it possible to scan from books and
magazines. When you put a thicker original on the reflective glass plate, the
document cover adapts to its thickness.
