Adjusting the feed
and separator roller
gap
(semi-automatic
feeder)
The gap adjustment knob on the control panel increases or decreases
the space between the feed and separator rollers. The gap must be
adjusted properly for smooth transportation of documents without
document overlap.
When documents of different thicknesses are fed in a group, adjust the
gap using the thinnest document in the group.
The feed and separator roller gap may have to be adjusted to
compensate for:
• Very thin documents (onion skin, tracing paper, etc.).
• Very thick documents (card stock, punch cards, cover stock).
• Some coated documents (photographic paper, plastic-coated
paper).
If the gap is not adjusted properly:
• More than one document at a time may be drawn into the transport
system at the same time; not all of the documents will be scanned.
• Documents may be drawn into the transport too quickly; documents
may overlap or be spaced too closely (causing an error display).
• Documents may become skewed during transport; jamming may
occur.
NOTE: Prior to performing the adjustment procedure, the scanner
must be calibrated and enabled.
To adjust the feed and separator roller gap:
1. Verify that the power switch is on.
2. Turn the gap adjustment knob clockwise three complete turns to
open the gap between the feed roller and separator roller.
