• A batch of documents to be fed into the scanner for
document imaging must be arranged so the leading
edges of all documents are aligned and centered in the
input tray; this allows the feeder to introduce
documents into the scanner one at a time.
• Paper Types: The iNSIGHT 20 Plus moves paper
very well and will handle virtually any type of paper
that is not abrasive or excessively stiff.
Chemically coated papers may cause more rapid

wear/swelling of the tires.
• Paper Inks: All inks on the paper must be dry before
scanning is started. This includes: standard offset
printing, inkjet printer, thermal transfer, handwriting
inks.
• Correction Fluids: Liquid Paper

out , and other similar correction fluids must be dry
before scanning is started. If not fully dry, correction
fluid can get on the imaging guides and cause errors.
• Paper Weights: 9 lb. bond to 110 lb. index (34 to
2
200 g/m kg)
• Minimum Document Size: 2.5" x 2" (6.4 x 5.1 cm)
• Maximum Document Size: 8.5" x 34"
(21.6 x 86.0 cm)
Torn, damaged, or crushed pages can be transported
successfully through the scanner. However, no scanner
can transport every possible type of damaged paper.
• If in doubt about whether a specific damaged
document can be transported through the scanner,
place the document in a clear protective sleeve.
Sleeved documents should be manually fed, one at a
time, while lifting the gap release lever. (Do not use
protective sheets for data collection scanning.)
• When scanning documents in a clear protective sleeve,
the input tray guides must be adjusted to
accommodate the width of the sleeve.
