IMPORTANT
• Carbonless papers contain chemical substances that may damage the rollers (for example, the pick-up
roller). If paper jams occur frequently, clean the reverse roller and pick-up roller. (See Clean the Scanner
and Rollers on page 235.) The life of the reverse roller and pick-up roller may be reduced compared to
scanning wood-containing paper.
• When scanning wood-containing papers, the life of the reverse roller and pick-up roller may be reduced
compared to scanning wood-free paper.
• The reverse roller and pick-up roller may become damaged when a photo or sticky note on the document
touches these parts during scanning.
• The surface of the document may be damaged when scanning glossy papers such as photographs.
• The damage caused by using any unacceptable documents with your Brother machine may not be
covered under warranty.
