Scanning Originals of Different Sizes (Different Size Originals)
When scanning originals of different sizes, configure the settings to scan them after placing them together in the feeder.
This eliminates the need to place the originals for each size.
Placing Originals of Different Sizes
When you place originals with the same vertical width, line up the sides that have the same vertical width.
When you place originals with different vertical widths, line up the top left corners as seen from your viewpoint.
Precautions when placing originals of different sizes
There are restrictions to the combinations of original sizes that can be placed together.
2-Sided Single Pass Feeder SpecificationsPlacing an inappropriate combination of original sizes can result in damage to the originals or a paper jam.
Do not place originals of different paper thicknesses or paper quality together. This can result in a paper jam.
If you place originals of different vertical widths in the feeder, the originals with a smaller vertical width will not be secured by the slide guides and may be scanned at an angle.

Scanning Large Numbers of Originals (Job Build)

Preventing Scanning of Blank Pages (Skip Blank Originals)
Automatically deletes (skips) pages that have been determined to be blank when scanning.
For example, when both 1-sided and 2-sided originals are placed in the feeder for 2-sided scanning, the back side (blank page) of a 1-sided original is also scanned. In this case, when the settings are configured to skip blank pages, pages determined to be blank while scanning are skipped automatically, eliminating the need to delete blank pages after scanning.
