Be sure not to load the original untidily. Doing so may cause the machine to display a paper misfeed message. Also, be sure not to place originals or other objects on the top cover. Doing so may cause a malfunction.
When inserting originals in the ARDF, push them in once and without force.
After turning on the power, do not place originals in the ARDF until the “Please wait.” message disappears from the copy screen.

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 using the ARDF to scan originals with a paper weight that is less than 42 g/m2 (11 lb. Bond), move the slide tray on the original output tray to the left side. Not doing so may cause paper jams due to the originals becoming curled.
When the ARDF's slide tray is placed on the left side, the tray capacity is decreased. After scanning the originals, return the slide tray to the original position.
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.
For details about the sizes and weights of originals that you can place in the ADF, see Recommended Original Sizes and Weights.
When using the one-pass duplex scanning ADF to scan A3 or 11 × 17 originals, slide the ADF's extender on the original output tray to the right side, and then raise the stopper. Otherwise, the originals may fall off the right side.
