Step-by-Step Scanning Instructions

This section contains step-by-step instructions for scanning an image. Although the Windows interface is shown, Macintosh steps are the same.

Placing Your Original Document

1.Raise the scanner cover and place your document face down on the document table. If you’re scanning a transparency, the optional transparency unit should be installed. (See “Installing the Transparency Unit” on page 105.)

2.Position the document so the horizontal and vertical edges are carefully aligned with the scales along the sides of the document table.

3.Close the document cover slowly. Be careful not to move the document.

You can remove the document cover if you need to scan a thick item—such as a photo in an album—that doesn’t fit under the cover. Simply lift the back of the cover straight up. When you reattach the cover, line the rods up with the positioning holes and lower the cover into place.
