Positioning Originals - Canon 4.1 User Manual

Positioning Originals

Place the original you intend to scan on the scanner's document glass (platen).
Procedures
Place the original on the scanner's document glass.
Open the cover and set the original face down on the scanner's document glass
with the top edge at the back of the scanner. Align the original's corner with the
alignment mark.
Close the cover carefully so the original does not shift out of position.
Caution
• Be careful not to dirty the document glass when placing items on it.
• If an original has distinct horizontal or vertical lines, you should try to
position it on the document glass as squarely as possible to have the lines
appear straight.
• The maximum scanable size is the area of the entire document glass.
• Straighten out curls or folds in originals before placing them on the
document glass.
• To scan right to the edges of an item, position it approximately 3 mm
away from the edges of the document glass (platen).
