Placing an Original and Loading Paper
Placing an Original on the Exposure Glass
Use the exposure glass to scan originals that cannot be placed in the auto document
feeder (ADF), such as books and license cards.
• When lowering the ADF, do not place your hands on the hinges and exposure
glass. Your hands or fingers are caught, which can result in injury.
• Do not lift the ADF forcefully. The cover of the ADF might open and cause injury.
The ADF, or its hinges may also become damaged.
1. Lift the ADF or the exposure glass cover.
Lift the ADF or the exposure glass cover by more than 30 degrees to detect the
document size automatically when placing an original on the exposure glass.
2. Place the original face down and aligned to the mark on the upper left corner of the
scan area.

3. Lower the ADF or the exposure glass cover.
• When you place a thick book or three-dimensional original on the exposure glass
and lower the ADF, the back side of the ADF rises up to accommodate the original.
