Basic Operations
Orientation
You can place an original either vertically or horizontally. Always align the top edge of your
original with the back edge of the platen glass (by the arrow in the top left corner), or the back
edge of the feeder.
NOTE
• If the top edge of the original is not aligned with the back edge of the platen glass (by the arrow in the
top left corner), your original may not be scanned correctly, depending on the mode that you have set.
• Originals of the following sizes can be placed either vertically or horizontally. However, the scanning
speed for horizontally placed originals is somewhat slower than for vertically placed originals. Place
originals horizontally when copying with a Preset Zoom, such as when enlarging A4
➞ A3.
- Platen glass: A4, A5
- Feeder: A4
• Horizontally placed A4 and A5 originals are referred to as A4R and A5R.
• A3 originals must be placed horizontally.
