Scanning

Note: The ADF is available only on selected models. If you purchased a printer without an ADF, then load original documents or photos on the scanner glass.

Scanner glass

Use the scanner glass for single pages, small items (such as postcards or photos), transparencies, photo paper, or thin media (such as magazine clippings).

Tips for scanning

When using the ADF, adjust the ADF paper guide to the width of the original document.

When using the scanner glass, close the scanner lid to avoid dark edges on the scanned image.

Do not load postcards, photos, small items, transparencies, photo paper, or thin media (such as magazine clippings) into the ADF. Place these items on the scanner glass.

Select the PDF file type if you want to scan multiple pages and save them as one file.
