Using the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)

ADF Checklist (You must answer YES to each question to be able to use the ADF)

• Is the document longer than one page? Use the scanner glass to scan documents that are only one page in length (not the ADF).
• Is the document free of curls, tears, punch holes and wrinkles? If not, make a copy of the document.
• Is the document free of staples, paper clips and other materials?
• Is the document between 5.8" and 8.5" in width and 8.3" and 14" in height? For smaller documents, use the scanner glass (not the ADF) or copy the documents onto regular paper.
• Is the document on regular printer paper? If not, make a copy of the document.

Note: The ADF will hold up to 25 sheets. If you have more than 25 sheets, separate the document so that no scan is more than 25 sheets long.
