The service lives of the Pad ASSY and Pick roller ASSY are some-

 

times shortened when scanning medium-grade paper documents.

If paper containing wood is scanned, the service life of the Pad and Pick roller may become shorter than that of the Pad and Pick roller used for scanning only woodfree paper.

The pad or rollers of the scanner could be damaged if photographs or sheets of paper attached to the scanned document have contact with the pad or rollers during scanning.

Scanning documents of calendered paper such as photographs may damage the surface of them.
