Placing Documents

Place documents as described below to allow the machine to detect the document type or size automatically.

Important

When scanning by specifying the document type or size in MP Navigator EX or ScanGear (scanner driver), align an upper corner of the document with the corner at the arrow of the Platen.

Do not place items that weigh 4.4 lbs (2.0 kg) or more on the Platen. Also, do not press on the document with a force exceeding 4.4 lbs (2.0 kg). If you press heavily, the scanner may not work correctly or you might break the glass.

When scanning with the Document Cover fully open or with the machine placed upright, the document type may not be detected automatically. In that case, specify the document type in MP Navigator EX or ScanGear (scanner driver).

Photos that have been cut to various shapes and documents smaller than 1.18 inches (3 cm) square cannot be cropped accurately when scanning.

Reflective CD/DVD labels may not be scanned properly. Close the Document Cover when scanning.
