5. Placing the Original
Using the Document Feeder
The document feeder automatically feeds original sheets placed on the Document Feed Tray, one by one,
to let the machine scan the data on each original. After the machine completes scanning the data, the
document feeder automatically ejects it onto the Document Exit Tray. To ensure the best performance
and most effective use of the document feeder, use the appropriate type of originals as detailed below.
Use of unsuitable types of originals could result in an original misfeed or a damaged original.
