Choosing Originals To Scan - Xerox 1200 User Manual

Choosing originals to scan

The document feeder is designed to accept standard office papers as
originals. Like a copy machine, the document feeder may have problems with
bent, torn, or otherwise mutilated originals.
These originals work best
The document feeder accepts paper with the following dimensions and
weight:
m paper size
m paper weight
These originals may cause trouble
The document feeder will not work well with
m originals with tears, perforations, or punch holes
m curled or wrinkled originals
m carbon-backed originals or originals on coarse paper
m labels or postcards
m thick, taped, or glued originals
Such originals will work fine if you place them directly onto the scanner,
rather than feeding them through the document feeder.
Avoid valuable documents
Apple recommends that you avoid using the document feeder to scan valuable
originals. Some important documents, certificates, and photographs fall
within the acceptable limits for size and weight and can therefore go through
the document feeder for scanning. You should be aware that paper jams
sometimes occur, and such jams may damage a document. See "Bypassing the
Document Feeder," later in this chapter, for information about scanning
without the feeder.
