Loading Documents in the Input Tray

You can load documents that meet the document specifications in the input tray.

Caution:

Do not load fragile or irreplaceable photos, or valuable original documents or artwork, directly into the input tray. This may wrinkle or damage the original. Load these originals one at a time using a carrier sheet.

Open the scanner cover, pull up the input tray extension, extend the output tray, and open the stopper.

Note: If you are loading documents that are 15.5 inches (393.8 mm) or longer, do not extend the input or output tray extensions and do not open the stopper.
Slide the input tray edge guides all the way out.
If you are loading a multi-page document, fan the stack and tap them gently on a flat surface to even the edges.
Slide your documents into the input tray as shown until they meet resistance. Make sure the printed side is facedown, in portrait orientation, and top edge first.
- If you are loading paper business cards, load up to 30 cards facedown and top edge first into the center of the input tray, and slide them in until they meet resistance.
- If you are loading hole-punched originals, load them with the holes facing down or to the side as shown. The holes must be within 1.2 inches (30 mm) of the edges of the originals.
Slide the edge guides against the edges of the document.
If necessary during scanning, adjust the position of the stopper and the output tray extension to fit the ejected originals.
Note: If thicker paper does not eject properly or falls from the output tray, push in the output tray and allow the originals to eject freely onto the surface below the scanner. If the scanned images are affected by the originals ejecting below the scanner, try placing the scanner on the edge of a table where the ejected originals can drop freely.

If you encounter a paper jam, press the

slow mode button once before scanning to slow down the feeding speed. Press it again when you finish to return to normal speed.

If scanning stops because a double feed was detected, press the

double feed detection skip button to resume scanning.
