Acceptable Types of Originals

15

Make sure your originals are com-
pletely dry before setting them in the
machine. Originals containing wet

ink or correcting fluid will mark the
exposure glass and resulting image
will be affected.

Do not set the following types of originals in the Document Feeder (ADF) be-
cause they may be damaged. Place them on the exposure glass instead.
• Originals of sizes other than those specified in the previous table
• Originals containing staples or clips
• Perforated or torn originals
• Curled, folded, or creased originals
• Pasted originals
• Originals with any kind of coating, such as thermosensitive paper, art paper,

aluminum foil, carbon paper, or conductive paper

• Originals with index tabs, tags, or other projecting parts
• Sticky originals, such as translucent paper
• Thin and soft originals
• Originals of inappropriate weight (see table above)
• Originals in bound form, such as books
• Transparent originals, such as OHP transparencies or translucent paper
