Introduction to Fax Functions

NOTE

If the top edge of the original is not aligned with the back edge of the platen glass (by the arrow in the top left corner), your original may not be scanned correctly, depending on the scan and send modes that you have set.

Originals of the following sizes can be placed either vertically or horizontally. However, the scanning speed for horizontally placed originals is somewhat slower than vertically placed originals. Place originals horizontally when scanning with a Preset Zoom, such as when enlarging an LTR original onto 11" x 17" paper.

- Platen glass:

LTR, STMT

- Feeder:

LTR, STMT

Horizontally placed LTR and STMT originals are referred to as LTRR and STMTR.

11" x 17" and LGL originals must be placed horizontally.

Platen Glass

You should use the platen glass when scanning bound originals (such as books and magazines), heavy or lightweight originals, and transparencies. (See "Document Size," on p. 3-21.)

NOTE

The machine automatically detects the size of the following originals: 11" x 17", LGL, LTR, and LTRR.

1 Lift the feeder/platen cover.

IMPORTANT

This machine is equipped with an open/close sensor on the feeder/platen cover (see circled area in the above illustration). When placing originals on the platen glass, lift the feeder/platen cover approximately 11 7/8" (300 mm) so that the sensor detaches from the feeder/platen cover. If the sensor does not detach from the feeder/platen cover, the size of the originals may not be detected correctly.
