•Remove all staples, paper clips, or any other fasteners before loading the document into the Automatic Document Feeder 
(ADF).
•Make sure any glue, ink, or correction fluid on the paper is completely dry before loading the document into the Automatic 
Document Feeder (ADF).
•If you have a document that will not feed into the machine properly, make a photocopy of the document, then load the 
copy instead.

stack.
2Adjust the document guides to the width of the document.
3Load the document faced down in the ADF.
The document is now ready for scanning.
NOTE
•For multiple page documents, the pages are fed one by one from the top of the stack (from the first page).•Wait until all pages of your document have been scanned before starting a new job.•50 sheets of LTR-size documents or 20 sheets of LGL-size documents can be set in the ADF. If more than 50 sheets of LTR-size

●Trouble With Multipage Documents
❑
If you have any trouble in feeding a multipage document, do the following:
1Remove the stack and tap it on a flat surface to even the edges.
2Gently insert the stack into the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) until it stops.
NOTE
•If you have further trouble with page jams while feeding, see “Removing Jammed Paper from the ADF,” on p. 13-6.•Wait until all pages of your document have been scanned completely before starting a new job.
Adjusting the Resolution and Contrast
Adjusting the Image Quality (Resolution)
Canon’s Ultra High Quality (UHQ™) imaging technology enables you to send faxes with a print quality that is very close to 
that of the original document. The machine also lets you adjust the resolution it uses in sending faxes to best suit your 
particular document.
The machine has 5 resolution settings:
• is adequate for most text documents. 
• is suitable for documents with fine print (smaller than the print in this sentence).• is for documents that contain photographs. With this setting, areas of the document that contain photos are 
automatically scanned with 256 levels of gray, rather than just two (black and white). This gives a much better 
reproduction of the photos, though transmission time is longer. 
• is for documents that contain fine print and images (much smaller than the print in this sentence), and its 
resolution is four times of .
• is for documents that contain fine print and images (much smaller than the print in this sentence), and its 
resolution is eight times of .
