Note

  • If scanning takes too long, the computer might time out and display the error message "Automatic Scanning could not be completed" on the computer screen. If this happens, change the scan settings or scan the originals one side at a time.

  • In the profile settings, if you select [Feeder (Scan one side)] for [Source], only one side will be scanned per operation. If you select [Feeder (Scan both sides)] for [Source], two sides will be scanned per operation.

  • When scanning from the ADF, you must click [Scan] in the [New Scan] dialog box each time you scan an original.

  • You cannot scan originals while other originals are being scanned.

  • Two-sided originals are scanned for sideways opening (top-to-top orientation).

  • Transmission results of WSD scanning (Pull Type) jobs do not appear in File Status.

  • The Blank Page Detect function is not available when you are using the WSD scanner (Pull Type).

  • If scanning is not at the specified size, delete the scan profile, and then scan again. For details about deleting a scan profile, see Changing a Scan Profile.
