Clearing the document path

The document path

If a document becomes lodged in the scanner transport system, the system stops running and a message appears in the status display.

A document can become lodged in the transport system when:

Documents are not fed straight (skewed).

Documents are torn, badly folded, or wrinkled.

Staples and paper clips were not removed from documents.

Imaging guides are not seated properly or are not installed.

Transport system baffle plates are not firmly closed.

The document path can be cleared easily because:

No tools are needed.

Easy-access panels let you quickly locate and clear documents.

There are six areas in the transport system where documents may become lodged and need to be removed:
