Placing an Original on the Exposure Glass

Use the exposure glass to scan originals that cannot be placed in the auto document feeder (ADF), such as books and license cards.

CAUTION

  • When lowering the ADF, do not place your hands on the hinges and exposure glass. Your hands or fingers are caught, which can result in injury.

Important

  • Originals that are larger than the exposure glass may become damaged if you place them on the exposure glass. Place the originals not to overwrap the the paper size indication.

  • When you open the ADF, do not touch the parts shown below. Your hands or fingers are caught, which can result in injury.

  • Do not lift the ADF forcefully. The cover of the ADF might open and cause injury. The ADF, or its hinges may also become damaged.

  1. Lift the ADF.
    Lift the ADF by more than 30 degrees to detect the document size automatically when placing an original on the exposure glass.

  2. Place the original face down and aligned to the mark on the upper left corner of the scan area.
