Document Quality - Fujitsu fi-4750C Operator's Manual

Document Quality

This section describes the types and weights of paper that the scanner can read and precautions in
preparing documents to ensure maximal scanner functioning.
Document type
The recommended paper type for documents is as follows:
• Woodfree paper
• Wood containing paper
When using any other type of paper, test feed a few sheets with the ADF to ensure the paper feeds
properly before performing a large-scale reading operation.
Any paper can be used on the flatbed. However, the ground color specification must satisfy the
specification described in the Grounding Color Area section.
Paper weight
The paper weight should fall within the following ranges:
2
• 52 to 127 g/m (13.9 to 34 lb), 127g/m
Precautions
For the following types of paper, a preliminary document feed test may be necessary to avoid
unexpected errors.
• Paper without a constant thickness. (like envelopes)
• Paper with large rumples or curls. (See the NOTICE on the next page.)
• Paper with folds or tears.
• Tracing paper.
• Coated paper (for example, some paper used for color printing).
• Carbon paper.
• Photographic paper.
• Paper with notches on its side.
• Non-rectangular paper.
• Very thin paper.
Use Flatbed always for scanning the following types of documents:
• Paper with clips or staples.
• Documents smaller than A8 (Portrait) size, or larger than A3 or 11 x 17 in.
• Materials other than paper (for example, clothes, metal foil, or OHP film).
Do not use ADF nor Flatbed for scanning documents on which the ink is still wet.
