Adjusting the feed and
separator roller gap
3 - 4
The gap adjustment knob on the Control Panel increases or decreases
the space between the feed and separator rollers. The gap must be
adjusted properly for smooth transportation of documents without
document overlap.
When documents of different thicknesses are fed in a group, adjust the
gap using the thinnest document in the group.
The feed and separator roller gap may have to be adjusted to
compensate for:
• Very thin documents (onion skin, tracing paper, etc.).
• Very thick documents (card stock, punch cards, cover stock).
• Some coated documents (photographic paper, plastic-coated paper).
If the gap is not adjusted properly:
• More than one document at a time may be drawn into the transport
system at the same time; not all of the documents will be scanned.
• Documents may be drawn into the transport too quickly; documents
may overlap or be spaced to closely (causing an error display).
• Documents may become skewed during transport; jamming may
occur.
NOTE: Prior to performing the adjustment procedure outlined in this
section, the Scanner must be calibrated and enabled.
1. Turn on the Side Panel Switch.
2. Enter Function Code F04 and enable counting-only.
3. Press Enter.
4. Press Run.
IMPORTANT: Do not make a gap adjustment while documents are in
the feeder or transport system; doing so will produce an
inaccurate adjustment.
