Scanning Thick Pages Or Bound Documents - Xerox DocuMate 5445 User Manual

Scanning Thick Pages or Bound Documents

With this scanner you can scan thick paper and bound documents up to a maximum of 1 mm thick.
To scan thick items:
The double feed prevention roller has to be moved away from the feed roller before you can scan thick items. The
double feed prevention roller separates the pages as the feed roller grabs and feeds the pages through the scanner.
Because the double feed prevention roller has to be disengaged, you can scan only one page at a time.
1. Open the scanner.
2. Locate the paper thickness switch in the underside of the ADF door.
3. Pull the paper thickness switch up as indicated in the illustration below.
When you pull the paper thickness switch the double feed prevention roller disengages and sits back into the
scanner.
4. Close the ADF door.
When you close the ADF door the double feed prevention roller will no longer touch the feed roller.
5. Place a single item in the input tray and scan.
When you are scanning thick items you cannot use the Double Feed Detection option in the scanning interface. If
you leave that option enabled the scanner will report a double feed error for each page you scan.
When you are done scanning, do not forget to move the paper thickness switch back into its original position so that
you can proceed with normal document scanning.
