Note

  • For information on using the ADF, see "Specifying the Settings for Originals", Copy/ Document Server.

  • Straighten curls in the originals before placing them in the ADF.

  • To prevent multiple sheets from being fed at once, fan the original before placing it in the ADF.

  • When inserting originals in the ADF, push them in once and without force.

  • After turning on the power, do not place originals in the ADF until the "Ready" message appears on the copy screen.

  • Take care to place originals after any correction fluid and ink has completely dried. Not taking this precaution could cause marks on the exposure glass that will be scanned.

  • The machine cannot detect the size of the original automatically. Specify the original size. For details about how to specify the original size, see "Specifying Original Sizes", Copy/ Document Server, "Scan Size", Fax, or "Specifying Scan Settings", Scan.

  • For details about the sizes and weights of originals that you can place in the ADF, see Recommended Original Sizes and Weights.
