How do I load a legal-size document?

• Do the following:

  Note: The illustrations are for reference only. Although they may differ slightly from the actual product, the steps are the same unless otherwise noted.

  1. Makes sure the scanner position light is off.
     

     Note: If the scanner position light is on, pull the position selector to the right and tilt the scanner forward.

  2. Open the input tray.
     
     
  3. Raise the input tray extension.
     
  4. Slide the input tray edge guides all the way out.
     
  5. If you are loading a multi-page originals, fan your stack of originals.
     
     
  6. Stack the originals with the printed side facing up and slide the stack so the leading edge is at an angle as shown.
     
     
  7. Load the legal-size originals in the input tray printed side down and top edge first, and guide them in until they meet resistance.

     Note: You can load one legal-size original at a time in the straight path position. In the vertical path position, you can load up to 20 legal-size originals depending on paper type. See link(s) below.

     
     
     
  8. Slide the edge guides against the edges of the originals.
     
     
  9. If the document extends beyond the input tray extension, support the original as it enters into and ejects from the scanner to prevent it from skewing. When scanning thin originals or originals that tend to curl after scanning, we recommend extending the input and output tray paper supports. After loading the original, press both of the buttons to raise the supports.
