Loading Originals in the Auto Document Feeder
The Auto Document Feeder automatically feeds originals one page after another so
that the machine can scan the data on each page. After the machine finishes
scanning the data, the Auto Document Feeder ejects the page into the Exit Tray.
To ensure the best possible performance of the Auto Document Feeder, use only
originals of the specified type.
