them. See

instructions.
Note
The maximum length the glass can accept is 297 mm (11.7 inches). If
your document is longer but you need to use the glass, send the
document in multiple sections.
Sending double-sided documents
You can send double-sided documents using the glass, or ADF as
long as the document meets the requirements specified in
“
Guidelines for using the ADF” on page 16
. You will find steps for
sending double-sided documents in the actual procedures for loading
and sending documents.
