Placing Your Original Document

1. Open the scanner lid.
2. Place your document face-down on the glass, in the corner
shown below. Move your document about 0.1 inch from
the top and side edge so your entire document is scanned.
3. Close the scanner lid.
Note:
If you place your document against the guides, the edges next to the
guides won't be scanned.
If you need to scan a thick document, such as a book, you can
remove the scanner lid. Press the P On button to turn the Stylus
Photo RX500 off, then unplug it. Open the scanner lid completely.
Then disconnect the cord from the TPU connector on the back of the
scanner and pull the lid straight up. Gently press down the original to
keep it flat on the document table. Be sure to replace the scanner lid
and reconnect the cord when you're finished.

Copying Without a Computer

Basic Copying
