Placing Large or Thick Documents

Before scanning a document, remember to respect the rights of copyright owners. Do not scan published text or images without first checking their copyright status.

Caution:

Do not place heavy objects on the document table glass and do not press the glass with too much force.

Make sure that the paper support is opened, and then open the document cover.

Place your document or photo on the document table, face down on the glass. Make sure the top of the document or photo is against the upper left corner of the document table.

Note:

If you are scanning multiple photos at once, position each photo at least 20 mm (0.8 inches) apart from the others. If you are scanning large or thick documents, you can remove the document cover. See Placing Large or Thick Documents for instructions.

Close the document cover gently so that your original does not move.

Note:

Always keep the document table clean. Do not leave photos on the document table for an extended period of time as they may stick to the glass.

To scan your document or photo, see Starting a Scan With Epson Scan.

When you scan a large or thick document, you can remove the document cover.

Open the document cover.

Pull the document cover straight up and off the scanner.

Note:

When scanning without the document cover, gently press down on your document to flatten it. When you are finished scanning, replace the document cover in the reverse order that you removed it.
