Basic Operation
Documents
The scanner can scan documents ranging in size from business cards 
to LTR/A4. The document sizes that this scanner can scan are shown 
below.
Plain Paper
Size
Width:  54 mm to 216 mm (2.12 to 8.5)
Length:  50.8 mm to 356 mm (2 to 14) (You can scan 
documents up to 3,000 mm (118.1) long by setting the 
scanner to the Long Document mode.)
Paper thickness
Normal feed:  27 to 209 g/m
2 (7 to 56 lb bond) 0.04 mm 
to 0.25 mm (0.00157 to 0.00984)
Non separation feed: 27 to 255 g/m
2 (7 to 68 lb bond) 0.04 mm 
to 0.3 mm (0.00157 to 0.0118)
Loading capacity
A4 size or smaller:  60 sheets (80g/m
2 (21 lb bond))
Larger than A4 size: 40 sheets (80g/m2 (21 lb bond))
Make sure stacks do not exceed 10 mm in height (including 
curls) for either of the above.
IMPORTANT
The documents to be scanned must satisfy certain criteria. Read the 
following items carefully.
 When scanning multiple documents of different sizes, place the 
documents so that they cover the entire span of the feed rollers by 
aligning the centers and leading edges of the documents. It is recommended that documents exceeding 356 mm (14) size 
are fed one sheet at a time.
 Scanning documents before the ink is dry can cause problems with 
the scanner. Always make sure that the ink on a document is dry 
before scanning it.
 Scanning documents that are written in pencil or similar material 
may make the rollers and scanning glass dirty, which can lead to 
smudges on the scanned image and transfer the dirt to subsequent 
documents. Always clean the internal parts of the scanner after 
scanning such documents.
 When scanning a two-sided document that is printed on thin paper, 
the image on the opposite side of each page may show through. In 
this case, adjust the scanning intensity in the application software 
before scanning the document.
 When the paper of the document is thin, switch to thin paper mode 
and then feed the document. For details, see “Placing Thin Paper 
(Thin Paper Mode)” on p. 28.
 Laminated documents may not be scanned correctly, depending 
on the document.

 When scanning cards, place them to be fed horizontally. If you 
place cards to be fed vertically, they may not be ejected properly, 
and cards that get jammed may be damaged when you remove 
them.
 Embossed cards may not be able to be scanned correctly, 
depending on the type of embossment.There are creases or 
fold lines.Carbon paper

How to Place Documents
Scanning multiple documents
Standard paper feeding should be used when scanning multiple 
documents of a standard size at one time. Standard paper feeding 
enables multiple documents to be fed while separating each page.
1Open the document eject tray.
2Pull out the eject support.
When placing long documents, pull out the document eject 
extension support to match the length of those documents. Also, 
stand the eject stopper at the end of the eject support if necessary.
IMPORTANT
Pull out the eject support and document eject extension support.
3Pull out the feed support.
Open the feed extension support when placing long documents.

4Adjust the document guides to fit the width of the 
document to be scanned.
5Place the document.
After placing the document, align the document guides with both 
edges of the document.
IMPORTANT
 When placing documents into the feed tray, take care not to cut 
your hand on the edges of the paper.
 Make sure that the document does not exceed the loading limit 
marks ( ) on the document guides. Up to 60 pages of ordinary 
plain paper (80 g/m
2) can be loaded at the same time. Before you place a document, check to make sure it does not 
contain paper clips, staples, or other small metal objects. These 
items may cause a fire or electrical shock, damage the document, 
or cause a paper jam or scanner malfunction.
 Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that may get caught in the 
scanner while you are using it, as this may result in personal injury. 
Be extra careful of neckties and long hair. If anything gets caught in 
the scanner, immediately turn OFF the power switch, and 
disconnect the power cord from the power outlet to stop scanning.
 Always smooth out any folds or curls in your documents before 
placing them into the feeder. If the leading edge of a document is 
curled, it may cause a paper jam.
 If feeding stops due to a system error or paper jam while the 
scanner is scanning, resolve the problem, make sure that the 
scanned image of the last page that was successfully fed has been 
stored, and then resume scanning the remaining document pages.
 After you finish scanning, close the document eject tray to prevent 
damage to the scanner while it is not being used.
When scanning a document one page 
at a time (non separation mode)
When scanning a thick document one page at a time or scanning a 
document that has multiple pages fastened together, set document 
feeding to non separation mode. This enables the placed document to 
be scanned without the pages being separated, regardless of the 
number of pages.
Non separation mode switching is performed by opening the scanner 
driver settings screen.
1Sets the scanning conditions.

Placing Thin Paper (Thin Paper Mode)
When placing a document with thin paper, switch the mode of the 
scanner to thin paper mode. In thin paper mode, the placed document 
is fed in a manner that prevents it from being damaged.
Thin paper mode switching is performed by opening the scanner 
driver settings screen.
1Sets the scanning conditions.
2Place the document as described in the “Scanning 
multiple documents” procedure on p. 25.
Hint
 When scanning multiple page documents that are fastened 
together, such as invoices, select the [Non Separation Feeding 
Mode] check box in step 4. Also, it is recommended to place 
the documents in the scanner one at a time with the edge that 
is fastened together facing down.
 When scanning multiple documents of different sizes, the 
scanned documents may not be ejected neatly onto the 
document eject tray. When scanning such documents, open 
the eject tray support.

2Adjust the document guides to fit the width of the card to 
be scanned.
3Place the card horizontally, with the reverse side facing 
you, and the top of the card facing down.
CAUTION
 Place the cards one at a time.
 When scanning cards, place them to be fed horizontally. If you 
place cards to be fed vertically, they may not be ejected properly, 
and cards that get jammed may be damaged when you remove 
them.
Hint
Up to 3 cards can be placed in the scanner at the same time if they 
are not embossed. In such a case, turn off non separation mode 
before scanning.

Placing Folded Documents
Folio Scan enables you to scan documents that are larger than LTR/
A4 and therefore do not fit in the feeder. To use the function, fold the 
document in half lengthwise and place it into the feeder. The DR-
M160II will scan both sides and combine the scanned images into a 
single image.
1Sets the scanning conditions.
2Fold the document in half.
Crease the document firmly down its center to fold the document 
in half. Fold the document so that its edges are neatly aligned. If 
the document is not folded properly, paper jams may occur or 
distortions may appear in the combined scanned image.
IMPORTANT
A portion of the scanned image will be missing at the fold line.
3Place the document with the folded edge facing right and 
the top edge facing downward.
IMPORTANT
Adjust the document guides to fit the width of the document.
Otherwise, the image may scan as skewed or shifted.
Hint
 The side of the folded document facing you will become the 
right side of the combined image.
 The maximum size for the combined image is A2. Use this 
method to scan A2-sized documents. When scanning a folded 
document of a size other than the standard formats, set [Page 
Size] on the scanner driver settings screen to [Match original 
size]. (See p. 60)
1Opens the scanner drivers Detail Settings screen. (See 
p. 57)
2Set [Page Size] on the [Basic] tab to a size that is half that 
of the paper to be actually scanned, and set [Scanning 
Side] to [Folio].
For example, when scanning a document of A3 size 
folded, set [Page Size] to [A4].
