Feeding Trouble

If the document is not fed properly or the detection functions do not work properly, remedy the problem by checking the following conditions.

Condition

A paper jam has occurred.

Cause and

• Check to make sure that the size and thickness of the

Remedy

document are within the supported range of the

 

scanner, and if the quality of the paper is appropriate.

 

For cautions on handling documents, see

 

“Documents” on p. 5.

 

• Documents with rough surfaces may cause a paper

 

feed error to occur.

 

Scan one sheet at a time in the separation OFF mode.

 

(See “Separation OFF Mode,” on p. 37 in Instructions.)

 

• Dirty or worn rollers inside the scanner may cause a

 

paper jam.

 

Clean the rollers if they are dirty. (See “Cleaning the

 

Scanning Glass and Rollers” on p. 15.) Worn rollers

 

must be replaced. Some rollers are replaceable. (See

 

“Replacing the Rollers” on p. 24.) If the rollers are not

 

replaceable, contact your local authorized Canon

 

dealer or service representative to have the scanner

 

serviced.

 

• The Separation Roller gap is too wide. Adjust the

 

Separation Roller gap. (See “Adjusting the Separation

 

Roller Gap” on p. 28.)

Condition

A double feed error occurred even though

 

documents are not being double fed.

Cause and

A double feed error may occur when documents with

Remedy

different thicknesses are mixed. Turn OFF the double

 

feed detection mode, if this happens.
