1.4.6.4 Notes on Using the Card Image Scanner

❏ Notes on card
• The side to be scanned must be up when it is inserted.
• Make sure to use a flat card without excessive curvature, cracking, or embossing.
Otherwise, the card feeding may be affected.
• When you use an IC card, be sure not to touch the contacts on it.
• Since the card sensor uses a transmissive photo sensor, do not use a card with a hole or a
transmissive area in the sensor position.
❏ Quality of image data
An appropriate quality of the scanning result may not be obtained in the following cases:
• A card that has excessive curvature, cracking, or damage.
• A card that has embossing.
• When excessively bright external light affects the image scanning.
• When the glass of the image scanner is scratched by a foreign substance such as sand.
