Scanning Area or Direction Is Not Correct

❏ When placing the originals on the scanner glass, align the corner of the original with the corner indicated by a
symbol on the frame of the scanner glass. If the edges of the scanned image are cropped off, move the original
slightly away from the corner.
❏ 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 from the control panel, set the scan area correctly.
❏ 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.
