Placing Originals 2-312Basic OperationsPlacing OriginalsPlace your originals on the platen glass or into the feeder, depending on the size and type oforiginals that you want to copy or fax, and the settings that you have programmed.■ Platen GlassPlace the originals on the platen glass when scanning bound originals, heavy or lightweight originals,and transparencies.■ FeederPlace the originals into the feeder when you want to scan several originals at the same time, and press(Start). The machine automatically feeds the originals to the scanning area and scans them.Two-sided originals can also be automatically turned over and scanned as two-sided documents.Document SizesIf your machine is the iR2030/iR2025/iR2022i, or if your machine is the iR2018i and you placeyour originals into the feeder, the size of the original is automatically detected and the documentis scanned. However, if the output paper in the recipient’s machine is not equal to the scannedsize, the original image may be reduced in size or divided into smaller parts before it is sent.If you place the original on the platen glass of the iR2018i, or if the machine cannot detect thesize of the original correctly (e.g. nonstandard paper size or a book), specify the size at whichyou want to scan the original.
