Clearing the
document path
If a document becomes lodged in the scanner transport system, the
system stops running and a message appears in the status display.
A document can become lodged in the transport system when:
• Documents are not fed straight (skewed).
• Documents are torn, badly folded, or wrinkled.
• Staples and paper clips were not removed from documents.
• Imaging guides are not seated properly or are not installed.
• Transport system baffle plates are not firmly closed.
The document path can be cleared easily because:
• No tools are needed.
• Easy-access panels let you quickly locate and clear documents.
