Precautions

Take note of the following:

  • When using the Photo Carrier Sheet

    • Up to three Photo Carrier Sheets can be loaded at once.

    • Do not write on, color, stain, or cut the end with a black and white pattern on the Photo Carrier Sheet.

      Otherwise, the Photo Carrier Sheet may not be recognized correctly.

    • Do not load the Photo Carrier Sheet upside down.

      Otherwise, a paper jam may occur and damage the Photo Carrier Sheet and the document inside.

    • As you keep using the Photo Carrier Sheet, dirt and dust will accumulate on the surface and the inside.

      Clean it regularly because it may cause problems related to scanning or affect the scanned results.

      For details, refer to Cleaning the (Carrier) Sheet.

      If the problem still persists, replace the Photo Carrier Sheet.

    • Do not fold or pull the Photo Carrier Sheet.

    • Do not use a damaged Photo Carrier Sheet.

      Doing so may damage or cause the scanner to malfunction.

    • Do not slide your finger on the edge of the Photo Carrier Sheet.

      Doing so may cut your finger.

    • If paper jams occur frequently, feed about 50 sheets of PPC paper (recycled paper) before scanning with the Photo Carrier Sheet.

      The PPC paper can either be blank or printed.

    • Even if the setting for a double-page spread image is enabled in the scanner driver, only the front side image is output.

    • Do not place a booklet (such as a passport) in the Photo Carrier Sheet for scanning.

      Doing so may cause a paper jam.

  • When storing the Photo Carrier Sheet

    • Do not leave a document inside the Photo Carrier Sheet for a long time.

      Otherwise, the ink on the document may be transferred onto the Photo Carrier Sheet.

    • Do not leave the Photo Carrier Sheet in high temperature places such as under direct sunlight or near a heating apparatus for a long time.

      Also, do not use the Photo Carrier Sheet in such environments.

      Otherwise, the Photo Carrier Sheet may deform.

    • To avoid deformation, keep the Photo Carrier Sheet on a flat surface without any weight on it.
