The U-turn path is used when the straight path tray at the rear of the scanner is closed, and the straight path is used when it is opened.

Standard feeding is used when the feed selection lever at the front of the scanner is lowered, and non separation feeding is used when it is raised.

Standard feeding is used to feed documents one page at a time. Non separation feeding is used to feed bound or fastened multi-page documents or folded documents without separating them.
