Document preparation Kodak scanners have been tested with a range of documents that represent the broad spectrum of document types found in the most
common business applications. Optimal scanner performance is achieved when you scan documents within the recommended document specifications listed below. Scanning documents that are outside of these specifications may lead to undesirable results in terms of scanner reliability, image quality, and/or consumable life.
Before you start scanning, make sure the documents can be fed through the scanner easily. Best performance is obtained by feeding a good, clean lead edge. This means the side of the paper which enters the feeder first should be in the best possible condition.
Use the guidelines below when preparing your documents for scanning.
∙Remove staples, rubber bands, loose mending tape or paper clips.
∙Straighten wrinkled edges and tape any torn documents.
∙Trim ragged edges (steno paper, perforated edges, tractor feed edges). If ragged edges cannot be trimmed, it is suggested that you try different feeding orientations to determine which orientation feeds best.
∙A batch of documents to be fed into the scanner must be arranged to have a common leading edge. Documents may be
IMPORTANT: Proper alignment of documents is very important.
Documents must be fed under both feed module tires.

∙Torn, damaged, or crushed pages can be transported successfully through the scanner. However, no scanner can transport every possible type of damaged paper. If damaged documents do not feed through the transport automatically, feed the documents manually. Use of the gap release lever may be required.
