Place the originals correctly by referring to the following table:

Note

  • Originals are normally vertically long (Illustration of an original) or horizontally long (Illustration of an original). However, the table above uses squares to make original orientation easier to understand. Even if the actual shape of the original is different, the combination of original orientation and the orientation specified on the machine does not change.

  • You can make the original orientation setting only when the scan size is specified.

  • When you specify [Full Color: Text / Photo], [Full Color: Glossy Photo], or [Gray Scale] in the [Original Type] tab under [Scan Settings], and single page TIFF/JPEG or multi-page TIFF is selected as the file type, see the table below for how to place originals. Originals placed in orientations that are not recommended in the table might appear incorrectly top/bottom oriented on client computer displays.
