The TWAIN Datasource, ISIS Driver or your scanning application provides
options on how you want to output your documents (e.g., based on size, patch
pages or multifeeds) using the Controlled Dual Stacking feature. See the
Scanning Setup Guides for TWAIN and ISIS on the CD or your scanning
application documentation for more information.
NOTES:
• After configuring the Controlled Dual Stacking feature, you may need to
adjust the side guides on the Controlled Dual Stacking Accessory to
accommodate your scanning setup.
• For documents less than 5 inches long use the optional short document
insert.
Stack #2 requires that the paper has certain qualities to be released in an
uncontrolled manner for it to stack correctly. Paper that lacks stiffness and
sufficient mass will not reach Stack #2 and will ultimately create disorder in the
output tray.
Recommended documents for reliable stacking in Stack #2
• A4 size documents that are in good condition and are 60 - 80 gsm and
scanned in landscape orientation.
• US lettersize documents that are in good condition and are 16 - 24 lb. bond
paper scanned in landscape orientation.
Documents that may not stack reliably in Stack #2
• Documents with folds perpendicular to the direction of the document
transport
• Documents in poor condition
• Documents with lead edge curl or damage
• Documents less than 8 inches and longer than 12 inches
• 110 lb. index paper of any size
• Lettersize 28 lb. bond paper
• A4 size 70 lb. offset paper
• Any size onionskin paper, NCR paper or photographs
• Lettersize 200 lb. index paper
• A4 size 90 gsm paper
NOTE: Even though the conditions listed above may not be reliable stacking
conditions, they may stack well under some circumstances.
Other factors that can affect stacking
• High and low humidity can cause documents to stack differently.
• Air disturbances, such as people walking near the scanner, fans, air vents,
etc. may cause documents intended for Stack #2 to not stack properly.
• Exceeding the recommended stack height (200 documents, 20 lb. bond
paper in good condition) in Stack #1 may prevent documents from stacking
properly in Stack #2.
• Use of the magnetic side guides can greatly improve stacking neatness.
• Curled lead edges may increase or decrease Stack #2 stacking reliability
depending on the direction of the curl and the paper type.
• Documents with lead edge tears, corner folds, tri-folds, or bi-folds can have
an unpredictable effect when depositing into Stack #2.
