4.2Reading a Document in Flatbed Mode
This section explains how to read a document placed on the document bed.
4.2.1 Reading a standard-size document
If the size of the document is smaller than the document bed, read the document using the following procedure:
①Open the document cover.
②Place the document face down on the document board. Correct any curled or folded parts of the document.
③Position the long side (in landscape mode) or the short side (in portrait mode) of the document to the left side of the document bed.
④Position the left top of the document to the reference mark. If the document is not placed correctly, reading cannot be done cor- rectly.
⑤Close the document cover slowly. If the document cover is closed too quickly, the document may move.
⑥Start the read operation. Do not press on or open the document cover during the read operation.
⑦After reading, open the document cover to remove the document.
