Automatic document feeder (ADF) Scanner glass
Use the ADF for multiple‑page documents. Use the scanner glass for single pages, small items (such as postcards or
photos), transparencies, photo paper, or thin media (such as magazine
clippings).
The scanner lets you scan documents directly to a computer. The computer does not have to be directly connected to
the printer for you to receive Scan to PC images. You can scan the document back to the computer over the network
by creating a scan profile on the computer and then downloading the profile to the printer.
