unit. See page 5.4.

the ADF (Automatic Document Feeder).

Ensure that the original document is face down in the ADF.
• Replace the paper in the paper tray with paper from a new
package.
• In high humidity areas, do not leave paper in the machine for
the extended periods of time.
• Fan the stack of paper, then turn it over in the paper tray.
Replace the paper in the tray with a fresh supply. Check/
