Items for the ADF

The HP Scanjet Automatic Document Feeder (ADF), which is a fast,
convenient way to scan multiple-page items, is included or supported
on some scanner models. See

"Front panel and accessories

comparisons" on page 3

. The ADF accepts items that meet the

following specifications:

items on standard Letter-, A4-, and Legal-size media

items consisting of as many as 25 unbound pages

items ranging in size from 88.9 by 127 mm (3.5 by 5 inches) to
215.9 by 355.6 mm (8.5 by 14 inches)

items ranging in weight from 60 to 90 g/m

2

(16 to 24 lb)

items that are square or rectangular and in good condition (not
fragile or worn)

items that are free of tears, perforations, or punch holes

items that are free of wet glue, correction fluid, or ink

Avoid multipart forms with carbon pages, transparencies, magazine
pages, gum-backed pages, and light “onionskin” pages.

Before placing an item in the ADF, prepare the item by doing the
following:

Remove curls or wrinkles.

Remove staples, paper clips, paper sticky notes, and any other
materials from items.

If your item does not meet these guidelines or you cannot prepare it as
stated, use the scanner glass.

Items for the XPA

The HP Scanjet Transparency Adapter (XPA) is included with some
scanner models or can be ordered. Use the XPA and its templates to
scan:

35 mm photographic negatives

35 mm slides

Because these items are easily damaged, handle them only by their
edges.
