Unsuccessful calibration

Preparing documents for scanning

Document orientation

If calibration is not successful, a message appears in the status display.

You may need to:

Verify you are using a clean, blank sheet of paper (at least 12 inches in length) as a calibration target. The paper must be wider than the documents being scanned and at least 8 1/2 inches long.

Verify there is not a document already in the document path. (Refer to the section entitled, “Clearing the document path” in Chapter 7.)

Clean the imaging guides. (Refer to the section entitled “Cleaning the imaging guides” in Chapter 5.)

Calibrate the scanner again. If calibration fails again, change the lamps. (Refer to the section entitled, “Replacing the exposure lamps” in Chapter 5.)

If you have done all of the above and calibration still fails, contact your service representative.

Before you begin processing documents, make certain the documents may be fed through the scanner easily:

Remove any staples, rubber bands, loose mending tape, or paper clips from the documents to be processed.

Straighten wrinkled edges and tape any torn documents.

Trim ragged edges.

When using the semi-automatic feeder, make certain all documents are of similar size, texture, thickness and weight, and the leading edges of all documents are aligned.

Before scanning, position all documents the way you want them to be displayed on the host computer. Feed the documents so the text or graphic appears to be facing in the same direction.
