NOTE: Operator assistance is required when feeding documents longer than 43.2 cm (17 in.).
Continuous feeding allows you to place additional batches of documents in the elevator tray (with operator assistance). Any time during continuous scanning, additional documents can be added at the bottom of the input stack. The elevator position must be set to 25 for continuous and manual feed operations.

∙Add a small stack of documents to the bottom of the batch in the elevator tray, by gently lifting the corner of the stack and adding the documents underneath the last document.
Manual feeding is recommended when you have a heavily damaged document, envelope or other thick documents, which may require additional clearance. Follow the guidelines for document size, weight, quantity, etc. outlined in the section entitled, “Document preparation” earlier in this chapter.
