11 and 8-1/2 14, which have the same width. For details, refer to [Scanning originals of varying sizes in a batch (Mixed Original)] .
Loading the original into the ADF
The ADF feeds original sheets one by one in order from the top, and automatically loads them. It also loads a 2-sided original automatically.
The ADF is helpful when loading a large number of original.
Put the first page of an original at the top, and load the original into the Original Tray with the required side facing upward.
Load the original so that its top side is placed on the left. When loading in a different orientation, be sure to specify the loading direction of originals.For details on the loading direction of originals, refer to [Specifying the original loading direction (Original Direction)] .
NOTICE- Do not load more than 100 sheets (20 lb(75 g/m)) at a time into the Original Tray, and do not load sheets above the upper-limit indicator guide. Doing so may cause the originals to jam, damage the originals, and/or an ADF failure. However, if the original contains more than 100 sheets (20 lb (75 g/m)), it can be scanned separately.
- If the original is obliquely loaded on the ADF, the original scanning speed may become slower. Before loading the original, always align its pages.
Slide the Lateral Guide to fit the loaded original.
