Brother INTELLIFAX 600 - Manual (Page 34)

BASIC OPERATION
Suitable Types of Document
The automatic document feeder (ADF) of the
IntelIiFAX600/650M will handle a wide variety of paper size
and thickness for copying and fax transmission, but to avoid
document jams and possible damage to the machine, the
following points should be noted.
• The range of optimum thicknesses for sheets used in the
ADF is 2.8 X 10~^-3.9 x 10~^ inches (0.07 - 0.10 mm) and
the range for weight is 0.07 x 10~^-0.114 x 10~^ Ibs/inch^
(52-SOgfm ). If you are using only one sheet of paper, the
thickness of the paper should be between 3.9 x 10 -4.7 x
—3
10 inches (0.07 - 0.12 mm) and the weight, between 0.114
X 10~^-0.121 X 10^ Ibsfinch^ (80 - 85g!n?).
• Feed documents of more than 10 pages manually, one sheet
at a time.
• Before inserting the document into the ADF, make sure the
pages are not stuck together, to avoid double feeding.
If the document you are about to transmit or copy is more
than one page, fan the sheets of paper and insert them face
down, so that the first page is at the bottom and will be fed
first.
• The document should not be narrower than the smallest
setting of the paper guides, nor wider than the widest setting
(5.8 inches to 8.5 inches).
• The document should be between 3.9 inches to 35.4 inches.
•
The paper should be between 0.002 inches and0.003 inches
thick.
• The paper should not be curled, wrinkled or creased.
• The paper should not be damp.
• The paper should not have any protrusions such as paper
clips, staples, or pasted-on additions. These may damage
the scanner or ADF mechanism.
• If the document is unsuitable forfeeding through the ADF,
make a photocopy and use that.
