Before You Begin
Before you begin sending faxes, please be sure to read all the instructions and
cautions listed below for placing originals in the automatic document feeder.
Using the ADF (Automatic Document Feeder)
■ Documents must be between
5.8 and 8.5 inches wide and
between 3.9 and 14.1 inches
long. Your machine can scan
an image only 8.15 inches
wide, regardless of how wide
the paper is.
■ The FAX-2800 and MFC-4800’s ADF (automatic document feeder) can hold
up to 20 pages, feeding each one individually through the machine.
Use standard (17 lb–24 lb) paper when using the ADF. If you’re using heavier
paper, feed each sheet individually to prevent paper jams.
■ The FAX-2900 and MFC-3800’s ADF can hold up to 30 pages, if you stagger
the pages and meet the following conditions:
Temperature: 68° F - 86° F (20° C - 30° C)
Humidity: 50% - 70%
Paper: Xerox 4200 or equivalent (20LB/LTR).
■ Fan the paper, and then
stagger the pages in the
ADF as shown:
■ Make sure you insert documents face down, top edge first.
■ Adjust the paper guides to fit the width of your document.
■ Open the document tray by
pulling it toward you (1),
then unfold the extension
(2).
