The Scanner is designed for exclusive use in scanning images from a book or file. Note, however, that it may not make reliable images from any of the following types of originals. (If a warning message appears, refer to page 6-2 “Troubleshooting for warning messages”.) If any originals other than the following cannot be scanned, contact our service agent or dealer in your area.

1. High-gloss originals

High quality images cannot be assured when scanning high-gloss pages such as gravures of magazines and catalogs in Auto Exposure mode. In this case, select Manual Exposure mode and hold the original as flat as possible. Refer to page 5-36 “Adjusting exposure for scanning” for auto/manual exposure adjustment.

In addition, the original type may be set to [Glossy] for scanning (Refer to page 5-43 “Selecting Original Type”).

2. Originals having high background density

The background density is the color of the actual paper on which text and photographs are printed. Papers of high background density include colored (other than white) paper, newspaper, train timetables, or diazo scanning materials (A2 or larger drawings used at construction sites and other engineering environments). When any of these types is used, select Manual Exposure mode and hold the original as flat as possible.
