User's Guide
❏ Clean the scanner glass and the document cover. If there is dust or stains on the glass, the scanning area may
extend to include the dust or stains, resulting in the wrong scanning position or small images.
❏ When you place multiple originals on the scanner glass to scan them separately, but they are scanned onto a
single file, place the originals at least 20 mm (0.8 inch) apart. If the problem continues, place one original at a
time.
❏ When scanning using Full Auto Mode or the thumbnail preview in EPSON Scan, move the original 4.5 mm
(0.18 inch) away from the edges of the scanner glass.
❏ When using the thumbnail preview for a large original in Home Mode or Professional Mode in EPSON Scan,
the scanning area may not be correct. When previewing in EPSON Scan, create marquees of the area you want
to scan on the Preview tab in the Preview window.
❏ If Auto Photo Orientation in EPSON Scan does not work as intended, see the EPSON Scan help.
❏ Clear Auto Photo Orientation in EPSON Scan.
❏ When scanning with EPSON Scan the available scanning area may be restricted if the resolution setting is too
high. Lower the resolution or adjust the scanning area in the Preview window.
