 Use document carrier sheet for smaller documents.

• With special sizes, only one sheet can be fed into the machine at a

time. Insert next page into feeder as current page is being scanned.

• Normal paper

Documents handwritten in pencil (No. 2 lead or softer), fountain
pen, ball-point pen, or felt-tipped pen can be transmitted.

Documents of normal contrast duplicated by a copying machine
can also be transmitted.

• Diazo copy (blue print)

• Diazo copy documents of a normal contrast may be transmitted.

• Carbon copy

A carbon copy may be transmitted if its contrast is normal.

• Documents written in yellow, greenish yellow, or light blue ink can-

not be transmitted.

• Ink, glue, and correcting fluid on documents must be dry before the

documents can be transmitted.

• All clips, staples and pins must be removed from documents before

transmission.

• Patched (taped) documents should be copied first on a copier and

then the copies used for transmission.

• All documents should be fanned before insertion into the feeder to

prevent possible double feeds.

Number of pages that can be placed into the feeder at anytime is as
follows:

Normal size: max. ADF 20 pages

Special size: single sheet only (manual feed)

NOTE:

• When you need to send or copy more pages than the feeder
limit, place additional pages in feeder when last page in feeder
is being scanned.
• Place additional pages carefully and gently in feeder. 
If force is used, double-feeding or a document jam may result.

The readable width and length of a document are slightly smaller than
the actual document size.

Note that characters or graphics outside the effective document scan-
ning range will not be read.
