Settings to Scan Various Types of Originals (Application Settings)

Scanning originals of varying sizes in a batch ([Mixed Original])

Even for an original with pages of different sizes, by using the ADF, you can scan data while detecting the size of each page.

For details, refer to [Mixed Original] .

NOTICE
  • Load all the original pages into the ADF so that the tops of the pages are at the back or left side of the machine.

Scanning an original that is thinner than plain paper ([Thin Paper Original])

Reduce the original feed speed of the ADF to prevent thin paper from getting caught.

For details, refer to [Thin Paper Original] .

Scanning a folded original ([Z-Folded Original])

Even the original sizes of folded originals can be detected accurately.

If a folded original is loaded into the ADF, the original size may not be able be detected accurately. To scan a folded original through the ADF, use [Z-Folded Original].

For details, refer to [Z-Folded Original] .

NOTICE
  • Unfold folded originals before loading them into the ADF. If a folded original is not unfolded before scanning, a paper jam may occur or the size may not be correctly detected.

Scanning a long original ([Long Original])

Load a long original that cannot be placed on the Original Glass and that is larger in the feeding direction than the full standard size (11 by 17 or A3) into the ADF. There is no need to enter the original size in advance, ADF will detect the size automatically.

Specifying the original binding position ([Binding Position])

When scanning a double-sided original, specify the binding position of the original in [Binding Position] to prevent the binding position from being reversed between the front and rear faces.

For details, refer to [Binding Position] .

Scanning while removing dust in the slit glass ([Despeckle])

When scanning an original through ADF, scanning of original and dust removal from the Slit Scan Glass are performed alternately, so that the original is always scanned using clean Slit Scan Glass.

It takes longer to finish scanning of originals, compared to the normal operation.

For details, refer to [Book Original] .

Scanning a number of originals ([Separate Scan])
