How to Scan
Small Format Scanner (HP Enterprise)
Scanning using the flatbed scanner
- good for media wider than 297mm(11.69") and non-paper media (wood, plastics, etc.)
NOTE: Please insert a piece of clear film first if scanning media that could potentially scratch or mark (e.g. ink) the glass.
Start by placing your media on the glass, aligning it to the top left corner. Then lower the lid; it's okay if it does not close all they way (i.e. if your media is thicker than paper).
Scanning using the sheetfed scanner
- good for multiple sheets of media and double-sided media
Start by placing your media on the top shelf, aligning it along the left side, then adjusting the guides to fit the width.
