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

  • 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.

1Lift the ADF.

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

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

Note

  • You can set a book or object that is less than 40 mm (1.57 inches) thick. A book or object that is thicker than 40 mm (1.57 inches) cannot be set.

  • When you place a thick book or three-dimensional original on the exposure glass and lower the ADF, the back side of the ADF rises up to accommodate the original.
