Make sure that:

during scanning

• the document side guides are adjusted to fit the documents being fed.

 

 

• documents are being fed perpendicular to the feed module.

 

• documents are being fed in the center of the ADF.

 

• all staples and paper clips have been removed from the documents.

 

• the feed module, separator module, and drive rollers are clean.

 

 

Scanner pauses excessively

Make sure that:

during scanning

• the host computer meets minimum requirements for scanning.

 

 

• there is enough free space on the hard disk drive.

 

• all other applications are closed.

 

• the scanner has the correct amount of memory installed for the documents

 

being scanned.

 

You can also try changing the scanning options (compression, etc.) in your

 

scanning software.

 

 

Documents are multifeeding

Make sure that:

 

• the leading edges of all batched documents are centered in the ADF so that

 

each document will come in contact with the feed rollers.

 

• the feed module and separator module are clean and not worn.

 

• documents with an unusual texture or surface are fed manually.
