    Solution

    Learn how to place documents on the machine's Platen. Place documents correctly according to the type of document to be scanned. Otherwise, documents may not be scanned correctly
    IMPORTANT
    • Close the Document Cover when scanning documents.
    • Place documents as described below to allow the machine to detect the document automatically. When scanning by specifying the document size, always align an upper corner of the document with the corner at the arrow of the Platen, regardless of the document type.
    • Do not place items that weigh 4.4 lbs (2.0 kg) or more on the Platen. Also, do not press on the document with a force exceeding 4.4 lbs (2.0 kg).

    Place the document face-down on the Platen, with 3/8 inches (1 cm) or more space between the edges of the Platen and the document.
