MEMO
●Documents comprising pages of differing thickness and size may cause a malfunction during feeding.
●Heavily curled documents or wrinkled or creased paper may cause erroneous double feed detection.
●Documents containing text or pictures within 5 mm (0.1 in.) from its edges or documents with a color background may cause erroneous skew detection or automatic size detection.
Document Loading Precautions
Observe the following cautions when loading documents on the scanner’s document tray:
●Before you load the document on the scanner, be sure to tap the document sheets on a desk, for example, so that the edges of the sheets are aligned.
●Load documents on the document tray face up.
●Load documents so that their top edges are inserted as far as possible into the scanner.
●Do not load documents beyond the 
mark on the document tray. Doing so might cause a paper jam. As a rough guideline, the maximum amount of documents that can be stacked on the document tray is about 500 sheets of PPC A4 or
●If the document tray does not rise after loading documents on the document tray and you hear a clicking sound, a probable cause is that the document stack weight is heavier than specified even if the load is lower than specified (below the 
mark on the document tray). Reduce the number of pages to load on the document tray, and try scanning again.
Small Size:
When A4/LTR or smaller size documents are loaded
Large Size:
When documents larger than A4/LTR size are loaded
●Be sure to use both hands when adjusting the document guides.
