Scanning
ADF Scanner glass
Use the ADF for multiple‑page documents.
Note: The ADF is available only in select printer
models. If you purchased a printer without an ADF,
then load original doc uments or photo s on the
scanner glass. Use the scanner glass for single pages, small items
(such as postcards or photos), transparencies, photo
paper, or thin media (such as magazine clippings).

Tips for scanning

•Use the scanner glass when scanning two‑sided pages if your printer does not support duplex scanning
or the ADF does not support the original document size.
•When using the ADF, adjust the paper guide on the ADF to the width of the original doc ument.
•When using the scanner glass, close the scanner cover, if possible, to avoid dark edg es on the scanned
image.
•Do not load postcards, photos, small items, transparencies, photo paper, or thin media (suc h as
magazine clippings) into the ADF. Place these items on the scanner glass.
•When the document to be scanned is in place with the settings you want, press to start scanning.
