1. Original Size (X1 and Y1)

   Specify the length and width of the original.

   Enter the actual width and length in [X1] and [Y1], respectively, and then press the [] key.

2. Start Position (X2 and Y2)

   Set Start Position to 0 mm (0 inch).

   Enter "0" in both [X2] and [Y2], and then press the [] key.

3. Scan Area (X3 and Y3)

   Specify the same values as Original Size (X1, Y1).

   Enter the same values in [X3] and [Y3] as Original Size (X1 and Y1 respectively), and then press the [] key.

- For X1 and Y1, you can specify 140 mm (5.5 inches) or larger.

- When scanning originals using [Custom Size], you cannot enter specific values in [Original Size] and [Start Position]. To configure the scan area, specify [Scan Area] and [Start Position] first, and then [Original Size].

- To scan an original that is smaller than 140 mm (5.5 inches), configure the settings as though you were scanning part of an original that is larger than 140 mm (5.5 inches). For example: to scan a CD label on the exposure glass, specify X1 - X3 and Y1 - Y3 based on the chart below. For details about scanning procedures, see Scanning part of a custom size original.

- For details about how to place originals, see Setting of Original Feed Type.
