Raise the document guides and feed extension plates.
Load the document. Before you load the document, thoroughly fan the pages.
Load the document into the feed inlet of the scanner with the scanning side of the document face down and the top of the document pointing down. Align the document guides with edges of the loaded document. Press the document beneath the tabs of the document guides. Up to 20 pages of plain paper can be loaded at the same time. Make sure that the document does not exceed the loading limit marks ( ) on the document guides.
When loading a multi-page document, place the pages of the document with their edges slightly askew.
If the document is curved, straighten the document before loading it. The scanned document is ejected from the front. Do not place any objects in front of the scanner.
If double-feeding occurs, reduce the number of pages that you load into the scanner at one time. Depending on paper quality, you may hear unusual noises while scanning some documents, but this does not indicate a malfunction.
