Check 4: Is the original document loaded with the wrong side
facing upwards or downwards?
When loading a document on the platen glass, the side to be scanned should be face down.
When loading a document in the ADF, the side to be scanned should be face up.
• Check 5: Are you scanning thick or curled documents?
Thick or curled documents may not be sent as good quality faxes, because of a shadow or
distortion caused when such documents are scanned.
When loading a document on the platen glass, press on the document cover with your hand
when scanning.
