Select the Paper Feeding Options
There are paper feed options that you can adjust using the scanner control panel. Adjust these options
based on the type of documents you are scanning.
Hopper—the up and down arrows adjust the height of the input tray based on
the amount of paper in the input tray. There are 3 options for the input tray
level, which match the document options in the input tray for 100, 200, or 300
page stacks. The scanner will automatically raise the tray during scanning, but if
you regularly scan small batches of paper, you may want to keep the input tray
higher to save time adjusting the height automatically while scanning.
ADF—this button changes the scanner from automatic feeding (first option) to
manual feeding (second option). When automatic feeding is selected, the
scanner automatically raises the input tray during scanning. When manual
feeding is selected, the input tray is raised to the top for feeding one page, or
stacks of very few pages, at a time. This raises the input tray above the 100
page height that is adjustable with the hopper position arrows. When you are
using a scanning interface with a manual feed mode option, switch the scanner
to manual feed mode as well.
Thickness—this option adjusts how close the rollers are to each other. Tap this button to cycle through
the options and select the option that matches the thickness of the paper you are scanning.
