How to use

Load documents face up into the 50-sheet automatic document feeder and adjust the paper guides to align media before starting a scan. Use the built-in display to choose the target destination (cloud, email, FTP, PC, SMB or USB) and preferred scan settings such as resolution and color mode. For network operation, connect the scanner via Ethernet or USB 2.0 to a host system and install the required driver/software. Follow on-screen prompts to initiate scanning; the duplex function will capture both sides in a single pass.

Recommendations

For best results, use documents free of staples and heavy creases, keep paper guides properly adjusted to avoid skew, and select 600 x 600 DPI when higher image fidelity is required. Use recommended scanning destinations according to your workflow: cloud or SMB for shared access, and local USB or PC for archival copies. Regularly clean the CIS sensors and ADF path following the manufacturer’s maintenance instructions to maintain consistent image quality and reliable paper handling.
