Loading a Document
You can use the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) or the 
document glass to load an original document for faxing. Using 
the ADF, you can load up to 50 sheets of 75 g/m
2 (20 lb) paper 
at a time. You can, of course, place only one sheet at a time on 
the document glass. For details about preparing a document, 
see page 5.3.
To fax a document using the Automatic 
Document Feeder (ADF):
1Load the document face up into the ADF. You can insert up 
to 50 sheets at a time. Make sure that the bottom of the 
document stack matches the paper size marked on the 
document tray.

2Place the document face down on the document glass and 
align it with the registration guide at the top left corner of 
the glass.
NOTE: Make sure that no other documents are in the ADF 
(Automatic Document Feeder). If a document is detected in the 
ADF, the machine gives it priority over the document on the 
document glass.
3Close the document cover.
NOTES: 
• If you are copying a page from a book or magazine, lift the cover 
until its hinges are caught by the stopper and then close the 
cover. If the book or magazine is thicker than 30 mm, start 
copying with the cover open. 
• To get the best scan quality, especially for colored or gray-scaled 
images, use the document glass.
