7Placing DocumentsNote the following points when placing documents on the scanner.• Place the front of the document toward you.• A maximum of 50 documents or a document stack no higherthan 5 mm (0.2") can be loaded at one time.• Move the stopper to the edge of the document in the documenttray in accordance with the document. Otherwise, this maycause a paper eject error.• When scanning multiple documents, sort them into batches ofuniform paper quality and thickness and load each batchseparately. Note that loading mixed batches may cause paperjams.• When scanning relatively thick (0.15 mm to 0.2 mm (0.005" to0.008") documents, the feeding process may cause thedocument to curl and cause paper jams at the document feedopening. For such documents, load no more than 10 sheets atone time.IMPORTANTAlign the documents and set the bottom of the documents level in thedocument tray.Document Feeding and ScanningThis section describes how to load and scan documents.CAUTION• Avoid wearing loose fitting clothing, dangling jewelry, long ties,or long hair that could become entangled with moving parts,especially the rollers that feed paper through the scanner.
