Orientation
You can place an original either vertically or horizontally. Always align the top edge
of your original with the back edge of the platen glass (by the arrow in the top left
corner), or the back edge of the feeder.
NOTE
•
If the top edge of the original is not aligned with the back edge of the platen glass (by the
arrow in the top left corner), your original may not be scanned correctly, depending on the
scan and send modes that you have set.
•
Originals of the following sizes can be placed either vertically or horizontally. However,
the scanning speed for horizontally placed originals is somewhat slower than for
vertically placed originals. Place originals horizontally when scanning with a Preset
Zoom, such as when enlarging an LTR original onto 11" x 17" paper.

Horizontally placed LTR and STMT originals are referred to as LTRR and STMTR.

11" x 17" and LGL originals must be placed horizontally.
