Selecting the Feeding Option

The procedure for feeding a document varies according to which feed mode is set. You can choose from the following four feed modes using the Feeding Option key.

Remote

In this mode, all of the Feeding Option lamps are out. This mode is enabled in the Backup mode or Scanner Only mode. In this mode, start and end of scanning are performed entirely by the application, and scanning is begun when start scanning is initiated by the application with the document placed on the document tray.

Semi-Auto

In this mode, the Start key turns green when start scanning is initiated by the application. In the Filmer Only mode, the Start key turns green when Semi-Auto is selected, and scanning is started by pressing the Start key after placing the document on the document tray.

If you place the next document on the document tray after the first placed document has finished being scanned, scanning is continued by pressing the Start key.

Auto

In the Backup mode or Scanner Only mode, scanning is automatically started by placing a document on the document tray after instructing the start of scanning by the application. In the Filmer Only mode, scanning is automatically started by Selecting “Auto” and placing a document on the document tray. If you place the next document on the document tray after the first placed document has finished being scanned, scanning is automatically continued.

Manual

Use this mode to scan documents that are not fed well when placed as an entire stack, for example, documents of paper quality that is more likely to cause double feed. In this mode, you load the document one page at a time. When you select Manual, the document tray rises. In the Backup mode or Scanner Only mode, first start scanning via the application, and then place the document one sheet at a time on the document tray to scan the document. In the Filmer Only mode, select Manual, and then place the document one sheet at a time on the document tray to scan the document.
