Scanning Slows Down Dramatically During Continuous Scanning
Scanning slows down to prevent the printer mechanism from overheating and being damaged. However, you can
continue scanning. To return to normal scanning speed, leave the printer idle for at least 30 minutes. Scanning
speed does not return to normal if the power is off.
