if you scan other types of documents, paper jamming or multiple-sheet feeding may occur.
2 scanning paper such as carbons or carbonless paper may cause skewing, paper jamming or multiple-sheet feeding because it makes the rollers dirty and the chemicals may cause the rollers to swell up.
3 the amount of documents should not exceed the limit mark on the document guide. this may cause a paper jam or skew.
4 be sure to remove the document from the exit tray after it is scanned.
