You can adjust the scan area manually using the following values:

want to scan.
Y-Offset

Adjust the distance from the top edge of the document to the top edge of the area in the document that
you want to scan.

Length

Multi-Feed Detection options
Configure the Multi-Feed Detection options to detect documents that overlap when fed through the ADF.
A multi-feed usually occurs due to stapled documents, adhesives on documents, or electrostatically charged
documents.
Additional Length Detection

Additional Length Detection allows you to define the length of document being scanned by specifying
the additional length exceeding scan area. A value of 0 indicates no additional length detection. Use the
Additional Length Detection feature when scanning multiple same-size documents from the ADF.
If you select this detection method, scanning will not stop even if a multi-feed is detected.
 Ultrasonic Detection
Ultrasonic Detection detects overlapping pages by measuring paper thickness.
If you select this detection method, scanning stops immediately upon multi-feed detection and a Warning
appears on your computer monitor.
 Stop Scanning after Multi-Feed
Select this check box to stop the feeder and display the Warning dialog box when a multi-feed is detected.
NOTE
• This option is available when you select Additional Length Detection.
• To stop scanning immediately when a multi-feed is detected, select the Stop Scanning after Multi-Feed
check box.
 Multi-Feed Alarm
Use this feature if you want your computer to emit an audible alarm if a multi-feed is detected.
To change the alarm sound, click Browse... and choose a wave file from your computer.
NOTE
This feature is available when either Additional Length Detection or Ultrasonic Detection is selected.
Reload Timeout
Set the amount of time the scanner will wait before auto-scanning the next document after the scan job is
completed. Use this feature if you load many separate documents in the ADF that must be scanned using the
same scan settings.
