Bypassing Multifeed Detection for a Fixed Format

If you attempt to scan a document sheet with a sticky note, receipt, or photo glued on it while the Multifeed Detection function is enabled, the scanner could mistakenly judge this as a multifeed error and discontinue the scanning. To resolve such a problem, the "Intelligent Multifeed Function" is provided.

There are two modes to this function. In one mode, you can suppress multifeeds forcibly by operating the Operator Panel on the scanner. In the other mode, you can suppress multi- feeds automatically by letting the scanner learn the locations and sizes of the sticky note, glued receipt or glued photo beforehand.
