In a typical scanning session, these components function as follows:

•The power switch { XE "Power switch" }turns on the scanner and any other system components that are plugged into the scanner's internal power strip.

•The READY switch { XE "READY switch" }starts and stops the scanner.

•The input hopper { XE "Input hopper" \i }holds the forms that are ready to be scanned. When the scanner is made READY, the input hopper raises; when the scanner stops, the hopper lowers, allowing you to load more documents. The input hopper accepts stacks of up to 750 forms, depending on the thickness and condition of the sheets.

•The input hopper height adjustment switch { XE "Input hopper height adjustment switch" \i }allows you to adjust the height of the input hopper so that the scanner can pick a sheet. Refer to the Operator's Guide for the 5000i Scanner for instructions on setting this adjustment.
