If you use a different scanner button with the ADF and encounter this problem again, follow these steps to set the correct page size for that button.

106 Troubleshooting and maintaining

The bottom of the scanned image is cut off.

The ADF can handle items up to 355.6 mm (14 inches) long. If the item is longer, scan it in sections on the glass. If the item is the correct length, choose the correct page size setting in the ADF dialog box prompt before scanning.

If sent to a printer, the item might be too complex (require too much memory) for the printer to process. If possible, choose a printer with more memory. Or, select a lower resolution or different output type, like black and white or grayscale.

If you are scanning from the scanner buttons, make sure the correct page size for the ADF is selected in the HP Scanjet Controls control panel:

1Choose Control Panels from the Apple () menu, and then choose HP Scanjet Controls from the submenu.

2Click the Buttons tab in the HP Scanjet Controls dialog box, and then click the tab for the scanner button you are using.

3In the ADF Page Size section of the dialog box, select the setting that corresponds to the pages you are using with the ADF.

4Close the HP Scanjet Controls dialog box.

Note:

Back to TOC

After starting a scan from the Copy button using the ADF, the scanned image is reduced on the printed page and extra space appears around the scanned image.

When using the Copy button, the ADF page size settings are not sent automatically to the printer. Set the page size in the Page Setup dialog box on the computer:

1In the Application menu (located in the upper-right corner of the screen), choose Finder.

2In the File menu, choose Page Setup.

3Choose the appropriate page size in the Paper pull-down menu.

4Click OK.

For more information about setting the page size, see the Mac OS Help on your computer.
