Precautions for Scanning
After using the machine to scan an original, check that the scan data meets the requirements for
precision and quality.
Since some parts of the scan data may be missing or deficient, observe the following precautions.
●
Depending on the condition of the original, cracks, skewing, smearing or loss may occur, and some or all of the scan data
may be missing.
Make sure that there are not wrinkles or folds in the original. In addition, correctly attach the original to the mat.
●
If an original is scanned while the inside of the machine is dirty, cracks, skewing, smearing or loss may occur, and some or
all of the scan data may be missing.
Carefully clean the inside of the machine.
●
Depending on the scan settings (scan size and resolution), originals may be scanned as described below.
• With an insufficient resolution, the image may be blurry.
• A part of the image may be missing, or the size may be reduced.
• Scan data from midway of the original to the end may be missing.
• Margins may be added to the edges of the scan data.
●
Do not scan the following types of originals.
• Paper clips or staples attached
• Ink that is not dry
• Metal or overhead projector transparencies
• Glossy sheets or having a mirror-like finish
• Plastic cards that have been embossed
• Originals that exceed the recommended thickness
●
With non-standard originals or even in the case of standard originals, the original may become jammed depending on its
condition (for example, wrinkled, folded or incorrectly loaded) or the condition of the consumables and the feeding
mechanism in the machine. In this case, some or all of the scan data may be missing. (The original may be damaged if it
becomes jammed.)
●
If a fluorescent marker has been used on the original, the color may not be scanned, depending on the marker color and
thickness, or the hue may not be faithfully reproduced.
