Loading Documents on the Flatbed

One sheet or an entire book document can be scanned on the document glass.

Scanning documents in this way is known as “scanning with the flatbed”.

Caution

Do not place floppy disks or any items containing magnetic data strips on the flatbed. Magnets are located in the flatbed cover (flatbed sheet) and may damage data stored on floppy disks and magnetic strips.

5 Match the longer side of the document with the standard mark.

If the document is slanted, it will not be scanned properly.
