Preparing originals
Do not load paper smaller than 142 x 148 mm (5.6 x 5.8 inches) or larger than 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 inches).
Do not attempt to load the following types of paper, in order to prevent paper jam, low print quality, and machine
damage.
Carbon-paper or carbon-backed paper
Coated paper
Onion skin or thin paper
Wrinkled or creased paper
Curled or rolled paper
Torn paper
Remove all staples and paper clips before loading.
Make sure any glue, ink, or correction fluid on the paper is completely dry before loading.
Do not load originals that include different sizes or weights of paper.
Do not load booklets, pamphlets, transparencies, or documents with other unusual characteristics.
Loading originals
You can use the scanner glass or the automatic document feeder to load an original for copying, scanning, and sending
a fax.
On the scanner glass
Make sure that no originals are in the document feeder. If an original is detected in the document feeder, the
machine gives it priority over the original on the scanner glass. To get the best scan quality, especially for colored or
gray-scaled images, use the scanner glass.
