COPYING THIN ORIGINALS (Slow Scan Mode)

Use this function when you wish to scan thin originals using the automatic document feeder. This function helps prevent thin originals from misfeeding.

Indicator line

Place the originals face up in the document feeder tray with the edges aligned evenly.

Place the originals face up. Insert the originals all the way into the document feeder tray. The stack must not be higher than the indicator line.

If the originals are inserted with too much force, they may crumple and misfeed.
