3-2 Mounting the Scan Object
First, you prepare the object to be scanned. After making sure the object is one that can be scanned, you mount the object
on the machine.
Preparing the Scan Object
This machine is not able to scan every possible kind of object. Some objects may be impossible to scan because of their
composition or shape. Refer to the following and make sure the object to be scanned is one that can be scanned on this
machine.
Object Size
CAUTION
Never try to scan an object that protrudes beyond the table or whose size exceeds the
scanning area.
Doing so may cause the machine to malfunction or damage the object to be scanned. Scan-
object damage is not covered by warranty.
An object that protrudes beyond the table or whose height is too high cannot be scanned.
In such cases, consider separating the object into pieces whose individual sizes do not protrude beyond the area described
above.
Object Shape
Areas where the laser beam strikes at a shallow angle cannot be scanned.
