Setting for a Function to Save the Documents from Being Damaged [Paper Protection]

Specify whether to enable or disable Paper Protection.

Paper jams due to feeding errors could damage or tear valuable documents.

Enabling this setting reduces the risk of having your documents damaged in such ways, by stopping the scan when the scanner detects a document that is unusually warped.

This function can be used to scan documents such as thin papers which are difficult to feed.

Start up the Software Operation Panel.

Refer to Starting Up the Software Operation Panel.
From the listing on the left, select [Device Setting 2] → [Paper Protection].
Specify whether to enable or disable [Paper Protection].
When you select [Enable], the scanner stops the scan when it detects a document that is unusually warped.
ATTENTION
- Note that Paper Protection is a function that protects the documents from being damaged, but does not guarantee that all documents can be saved.
- When you enable Paper Protection, make sure to set the documents with their top edges aligned (especially for a mixed batch with different lengths).
  
  If the top edges are not aligned properly, the Paper Protection function may be activated and stop the scan even when the documents are being fed correctly.
HINT
- Paper Protection is disabled in Manual Feed mode.
- It can also be configured from the scanner driver's setup dialog box or the operator panel. Note that priority is given to the scanner driver setting unless you have prioritized the operator panel setting.
