    Note

    When using the Mixed Size function, be careful about the binding position of duplex documents.

    When scanning mixed-size duplex documents, specify the binding position for the bigger documents and bind smaller documents in the same direction as the bigger ones. (Their binding positions may not be the same.)

    • Example 1: For A3/A4

      For A3 documents with long-edge binding, set A4 documents with short-edge binding. (When loading in the ADF, set the documents so that their binding positions align to the top or bottom of the ADF.)

      For A3 documents with short-edge binding, set A4 documents with long-edge binding. (When loading in the ADF, set the documents so that their binding positions align to the left or right of the ADF.)

    • Example 2: For Legal/Letter

      For Legal documents with long-edge binding, set Letter documents with long-edge binding. (When loading in the ADF, set the documents so that their binding positions align to the top or bottom of the ADF.)

      For Legal documents with short-edge binding, set Letter documents with short-edge binding. (When loading in the ADF, set the documents so that their binding positions align to the left or right of the ADF.)
