Notes about documents for scanning

•Depending on the paper type, scanning results may be poor when you scan unacceptable documents, or
even documents that should be acceptable.
If a paper jam or double feeding occurs, try scanning again after doing the following:
–Clean the rollers and sensors.
–Reduce the number of sheets of paper loaded on the hopper.
–Change the orientation of documents placed in portrait orientation to landscape orientation, or vice
versa.
–Scan the documents using manual feeding.
•When using stapled document detection, completely flatten any curling or creases on the rear end of the
document, and then perform scanning.
