How to Load Originals
IMPORTANT: Before loading originals, be sure that there are no originals left on the original eject table. 
Originals left on the original eject table may cause the new originals to jam.
1Adjust the original width guides to fit the originals.
2Place the originals. Put the side to be scanned (or 
the first side of two-sided originals) face-up. Slide 
the leading edge into the document processor as 
far as it will go. The original placement indicator will 
be lit.
IMPORTANT: Confirm that the original width guides 
exactly fit the originals. If there is a gap, readjust the 
original width guides. The gap may cause the originals 
to jam.
Ensure that loaded originals do not exceed the 
level indicator. Exceeding the maximum level may 
cause the originals to jam (see the figure).
Originals with punched holes or perforated lines 
should be placed in such a way that the holes or 
perforations will be scanned last (not first).
Original placement indicator
The original placement indicator is lit or unlit depending 
on how originals are placed.
Indications and their status are as follows.
• Green (left indicator) lit: Original is placed 
properly.
• Green (left indicator) blinking: Original is not 
placed properly. Remove and place again. 
• Red (right indicator) blinking: Original is jammed. 
Remove the jammed original and place it properly.

key (or [OK]).

The specified destination appears in the 
destination list.
