4.2 Reading a Document in Flatbed Mode
This section explains how to read a document placed on the document
bed.
CAUTION
!
High luminance: Do not look directly at the light source during
read operation. Keep the document cover in
place.
4.2.1 Reading a standard-size document
If the size of the document is smaller than the document bed, read the
document using the following procedure:
1 Open the document cover.
2 Place the document face down on the document board. Correct
any curled or folded parts of the document.
3 Position the long side (in landscape mode) or the short side (in
portrait mode) of the document to the left side of the document
bed.
4 Position the left top of the document to the reference mark. If the
document is not placed correctly, reading cannot be done cor-
rectly.
5 Close the document cover slowly. If the document cover is
closed too quickly, the document may move.
6 For M3097E+, select a reading mode from the operator panel and
start the read operation. For the M3097G+, the scanner starts the
read operation by a command from the host system. Do not press
on or open the document cover during the read operation.
7 After reading, open the document cover to remove the document.
