Document Feed Method Features
Using the reverse automatic
document feeder
Using the reverse automatic document feeder, a multi-page document
can be fed automatically. This feed method can also be used with
double-sided documents, and is perfect for multi-page double-sided
documents. (See page 2-41.)
Using the original glass The document is placed directly on the original glass, then scanned.
Each page of the document must be positioned manually (i.e., the
previous one must be removed and the next one placed on the original
glass).
This method is best with books and other documents that cannot be
fed through the reverse automatic document feeder. (See page 2-44.)
