Notes about documents for scanning
• Depending on the paper type, scanning results may be poor when you scan unacceptable documents, or
even documents that should be acceptable.
If a paper jam or double feeding occurs, try scanning again after doing the following:
– Clean the rollers and sensors.
– Reduce the number of sheets of paper loaded on the hopper.
– Change the orientation of documents placed in portrait orientation to landscape orientation, or vice
versa.
– Scan the documents using manual feeding.
• When using stapled document detection, completely flatten any curling or creases on the rear end of the
document, and then perform scanning.
