Basic Copying Features

IMPORTANT

•Do not place the following types of originals into the feeder:

-Originals with tears or large binding holes

-Severely curled originals or originals with sharp folds

-Clipped or stapled originals

-Carbon backed paper or other originals which may not feed smoothly

-Transparencies and other highly transparent originals

•If the same original is fed through the feeder repeatedly, the original may fold or become creased, and make feeding impossible. Limit repeated feeding to a maximum of 30 times (this number varies, depending on the type and quality of the original).

•If the feeder rollers are dirty from scanning originals written in pencil, clean the feeder. (See Chapter 7, “Routine Maintenance,” in the Reference Guide.)

•Always smooth out any folds in your originals before placing them into the feeder.

•Set the originals one-by-one if they are very thin (10 lb bond to 14 lb bond [37 g/m2 to 52 g/m2]) or very thick (28 lb bond to 32 lb bond [105 g/m2 to 128 g/m2]).
