4.6.1 Setting the Multifeed Detection Method
"Multifeed" is an error that occurs when two or more sheets are fed simultaneously into
the ADF. The detection of the difference in length is also regarded as multifeed.
By default, multifeed detection monitors for paper overlaps in the central column (25 mm
either side from the center of the document) of the document being scanned.
If stickies, slips, photos, or other paper ("attached paper" from here on) are attached on
the documents, this section is considered to be an overlap causing unnecessary detection
as multifeed. When scanning those documents, you can adjust the multifeed detection
area to ignore a specific area with attachments such as photos and prevent mis-
detections.
The "intelligent multifeed detection" allows the length and position of the attached paper
to be memorized in the scanner so that the multifeed will not be detected from the next
scan.
For document requirements for multifeed detection, refer to "A.5 Multifeed Detection
Conditions" (page 478).
